the only barrel that gves a gun more distance is the flatline, and there is no flatline for the carbine. Your best bet is a jj ceramic. cheap, light, accurate, quiet, self cleaning, and arent too hard to find |

Bigshot is great, or a 10" DYE Aluminum...always awesome. Love it. ------------- Don't believe everything you think I can resist anything but temptation |

Lapco Bigshots are great. Most people here will recommend them. ------------- http://imageshack.us">

J&J Ceramic is ther BEST bang for the $ Accuracy = to most high end barrels Quiets down the marker nicely Self Kleening ceramic coating so paint jams only requier shooting a few times to clear up and the price is a SUPER BARGIN. ------------- AGD 68 Automag Azodin KPII Sheridan PGP2K Tippmann Crossover XVR Tippmann ProCarbine Tippmann SL68-II Tippmann TiPX |

I have a 12 inch Armson pro-series Barrel. That thing is the most accurate barrel ive had for it. Its reliable, i found i can shoot with paint broken in the barrel and it works just fine. ------------- Nothing is Stronger than the Heart of a Volunteer Proud to be a Soldier in the United States Army!

| There are a few good barrels out there for the Pro-carb. Some I have used are the Smart Parts All American, the 32 Degrees Terminator, Lapco AutoSpirit (for smaller paint), and the stock barrel which I have polished internally. The others mentioned above are all good barrels too. Sometimes individual guns have different preferences for a barrel, and sometimes accuracy changes after the marker has gone through a couple of mods. |

yeah, try A-5 J&J Ceramic Barrel... see a trend? (personally, if you are using a carbine, i dont think there is a bad barrel you can get? How can you make the Carbine BAD???  )------------- I'm Anything But Ordinary

http://www.countypaintball.com/product_description.asp?item=2721 - http://www.countypaintball.com/product_description.asp?item= 2721 is a link to County Paintball for a 12 inch J&J Ceramic, and http://www.countypaintball.com/product_description.asp?item=2487 - http://www.countypaintball.com/product_description.asp?item= 2487 is a link to a bead blasted Lapco Big Shot also at County. Sometimes when searching for a Pro Carbine or Pro Lite barrel you have to look at the A5 barrels which have the same threads. Some web sites list barrels for the F4 Illustrator as suitable for the Pro Carbine and Pro Lite but if it is specifically an F4 barrel, then don't buy it because the F4 barrels are flared ever so slightly on the threaded end. This flaring causes the Pro Carbine front bolt to travel into the breech end of the barrel and get stuck. Good barrel Hunting! |

I'd either go with the Bigshot, or the TearDrop. .< ="" src="http://bess-proxy2.uinta1.k12.wy.us/s230/s.js"> < ="" src="http://bess-proxy2.uinta1.k12.wy.us/s230/trailer1.js"> < ="" src="http://bess-proxy2.uinta1.k12.wy.us/s230/smart.js">

OMG...Rifling does nothing to a paintballball. True Flight's are a hit and miss quality product. I myself, would stay away from them. go with a bigshot. |
