I prefer my CMI Thunder Pig. I like the riflings and the length. Gives me great distance and accuracy. ------------- Drugs make paintball more interesting... |

^Loser. The thunder pig is by far one of the worst barrels out there. IMO the best barrel (Not kit) is the Lapco Big shot for the A-5 if you get it bead blasted it will match your A-5 great. -Mike ------------- Cp critical Bob Long Lengens painball park Team Rendition |

hahaha thunderpig just because the barrel is twice as long as the gun, doesnt add any distance. id go for the bigshot. |

I like the flat trajectory of the flatline, and the ability to pepper the guy 225 feet down the field with paint, cause even if the balls don't break, (because the flatline can shoot farther doesn't mean the paintballs will break that far off cause they've lost too much velocity) it causes the guy under fire to do stupid things to get out of the way, and generally they run right out into the open and get shot by my buddies. ------------- A5 Flatline Car stock w/ built-in RVA Remote 20oz Co2 Leatherman Wave (for repairs) |

i'd go w/ the "broomstick" its perfectly accurate and just works all the time doesnt break and i choose it over the flatline only cause the A-% flatline isnt very accurate compared 2 98c 1 i dont care wut ppl say i shot both at 1 time and the 98 was better thats all ------------- always move forward going strait will get u nowhere there is no progress evolutions gonna kill us all-green day jaded |

youve got your markers mixed up, or the a-5 was using bad paint, or the barrel wasnt maintained the same as the 98c. the a-5 flatline owns the 98c's by far, and theirs no compitition. from accuracy, to user friendlyness. |
