Get the 12", I've got the 14" and its a little cumbersome and annoying, but a good thing about it is that it makes the gun look a little more sniper-ish... Big booming sniper-ish

  Some people like the 14" for pressing up against air bunkers.  I have a 14" Teardrop, and I would really wish I would have gotten the 12".

I find it hard convince myself that a 12" aftermarket barrel would give me that much more improvement over my stock barrel of the same length to warrant spending $60+tax. Now I know the stupid long barrels are going nothing but slowing down the ball....but sometimes wouldn't length be a good thing to have? I would guess it would have more time to stabilize the ball so it shoots straighter

The stock barrels suck, trust me, atleast on tippmanns.

Borrow ANY aftermarket barrel from someone and just take a shot, you will already notice the difference.

With a bigshot or j&j it will b a big difference.
