You don't really have to worry about the warrenty. If there is something wrong with it, just call Tippmann and they will help you fix it or they will send you another one.

Thats cool really. I know that my friends 98C Flatline had a screw missing so he called them and they sent him a new one, or maybe it was a different piece.

If there are no twigs in your way you can shoot.  With other barrels you have to see if there are twigs along your arced - non-straight - trajectory.


correct me if im wrong here,and im sure you will.but the flatline puts a back spin on the ball,causing it to lift giving it more distance.so how is you flatline going to shoot a stright trajectory? please xplain.

I've been trying to figure the same thing out for a few days now. I've sort of got this crazy theory of how it stays flat (which is pretty obvious, atleast if your like a pilot or something of that nature). The backspin on the ball of course as were told, creates an aerodynamic wing, sort of like on an airplane. The ball is trying to rise as gravity pushes it down, this would sort of explain why balls tend to arc if your shooting with the marker and barrel sideways.

I feel like you just said that I all I did was expand apon it. I don't know exactly what you mean by straight trajectory. Do you mean straight as in flat or straight as in something else?
