okay i wonder if this would liquid in the ball moving, sorta like shaking the glass of water while you spin it (the water moves). I havent really thought about it that much so it probably is flawed, but heres the idea:

well, there is a thread about this same thing just a little below this. its something about rifling, and we determined (last year at that) that it would never work. plus, you know what kind of god-awful amount of air would be required to drive the ball down that?

I have no idea what that does, but the x-ray looks cool

Who ever said anything about putting water in the barrel?

here's what he is thinking: instead of "rifling" the barrel, make it look like a corkscrew, so you you can get momentum and centrifigul forces instead of just spinning the ball. we already figured out it aint gonna work.

i say you buy 3 or 4 flatlines and put them together to see what you get.
Canadians do it on top.

and uh how much did that X-ray cost you or do you just have one laying a round?

Oh... and rifling a paintball barrel does work they are called Armson stealth barrels they are kind of rare but they are worth the $50- 120 and they are bad ***  maybe not the range of a flatline, but alot tighter pattern at longer range. (without the trouble of "TWEAKING" it.)

My buddy used one in a turney and was making head shots at 100+ yards poed one dude off so much that he was told next time he goes, hit him somewhere else other than the head!!!(I was told that dude was hit no where else but in the head 5 or 6 times)

1 paintball gun package=$150
1 case of paint=$50
air & entry fee=$15

I think if you attach enough flatlines together you could shoot straight upwards.
