Ok i decided to get the pro carbine because everyone i know has a 98c
and its too cliche plus im not that good right now anyways and
eventually plan on getting a better gun as i progress. What are some
upgrades i should get for the pro carbine that would help out some.

All you really need is a barrel. I'd recomend a Lapco Bigshot in either 12" or 14".

Stock barrel is pretty decent, Probably the best barrel Tippmenn ever made.

Don't listen to Bugg. You need to take the shroud off to change the barrel. It has the same threads as an A-5 barrel. Plenty of people have put Freaks on their Pro Carbines. ------------- Something unknown is doing we don't know what. That is what our knowledge amounts to. - Sir Arthur Eddington |

yeah, i field stripped a carbine once cuz it was a worn out piece of *edited*. But only cuz it was a rental and was probably not well taken care of. I personally love carbines. I have alot of respect for people that play with them. alot of fields rent those though so u might wanna get some upgrades to set yourself away from the crowd. Just don't think your gonna get like an insane ROF out of them. They rely more of accuracy and durability, just like almost every other tippmann. I've seen some guys do some crazy stuff on the forums with carbines. I'd like to see them come back. ------------- X |
