Get any barrel that doesn't say GTA on it. It's just the stock barrel but longer. ------------- A-5 E-grip Chipley Custom Carbon Graphite 16" Evil Adapter(Spyder) 32 Deg New '03 XChamber Remote Line Gun Sling Sniper f/x Stock LPK 68/4500 HPA R-5 CP Reg JCS Duel Trigger |

Yeah, the GTA 14" sniper barrel is a waste of money, your best bet would be a Lapco Bigshot. ------------- Black Smart Parts Ion Halo B Check-It Unimount macroline 68/45 Pure Energy tank |

or best bet, if you wanna try to be a sniper is a flatline barrel. it takes some learning to get used to, but once you know how to use it, you can rule the field in woodsball. its picky with paint, so you gotta spend some extra cash to get good paint. but the extra hundered feet you fire makes it all worth it ------------- A-5/E-grip,LPK, crossfire 92/4500,flatline,female palmer stab,JCS voodoo stock/rva,asr rail.

| the only hard part about a flatline is that the path of the ball takes an upward curve before coming back on target... makes close range encounters alittle.... um... interesting |

I have one, but i disliked it. its not really a sniper barrel at all. I would not recomend it. save your money for a better barrel!!! |

don't get a GTA sniper barrel!!! just get a j&j ceramic or if you can afford it, get a flatline all the way. I love my flatline and it gives you the most range on the paintball field. -------------
