I just got an A-5 and I need a quiet barrel for it. I have a FL, but it's extremely loud. I'm looking for something geared more for sniper operations. The FL gives me great distance but it also tends to give away my hide site... Any suggestions??

Unfortunately, there really are no quiet barrels in paintball. The Flatty is the best barrel to play "sniper" with. The JJ ceramic is a nice barrel and is accurate.

Hey!

Yeah...it doesn't matter what barrel you shoot...everyone on the field will be able to hear you.

If you can shoot them...they can hear you.

Just stick with your flatline and you'll be all set cuz it doesn't matter if they can hear you because you can shoot them before they can get close enough to shoot you.

Keep your flatline and also get the 32* Whisper Barrel. They are really quiet and have pretty good accuracy.
