I have decided between the Dye Ultralite 14" and Lapco Snapshot 14". Dye Ultralite is $99 and Lapco Snapshot is around $90.00 Which one should I get please vote and tell me good or bad experiences and which one you would reccomend. |

The snapshot really isnt any better than the bigshot other than it's quieter, I believe. I'd go for the Ultralite.. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

Usually people would think that Dye makes better quality products because its more expensive, but you're basically paying for the name...but both are good LAPCO makes good quality products. I've never used a snapshot, so I'm gonna go with the Ultralite. I like the boomstick too. ------------- Workin From Seven to Eleven every night It really makes life a drag I dont think thats right Ive really been the best of fools Since Ive Been Lovin You Im about to loose my worried mind |

you are definitely not paying for the "name" with a dye product unless it's their stupid pants... ehh. they're barrels are honestly the best barrels out there, just look at what the pros use. the ultralite's probably one of, if not the, best barrel out there. ------------- WGP orracle cp flame drop MACdev gladiator reg Evil pipe kit 68/5000 tank evlutionII w/zboard A-5 ultralite e-grip w/jcs duel trigger 45/4500 crossfire LPK,cp reg Drop forward |

Hi guys thanks for the reviews not sure what I might do but im leaning for the ultralite right now I am going to read more from pbreview and stuff to make my final decision. What would help if you guys go to this thread I posted on here and answer my question about this site to order from. http://www.tippmann.com/players/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=133626&PN=1 - http://www.tippmann.com/players/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp ?TID=133626&PN=1 |

I have 2/3rds of an Ultralite "kit" - 2 backs, 2 tips, but I seriously
don't use them. I prefer my Lucky 15 barrel kit over the UL. Cheaper too! ------------- '...in order to use that particular insult, it really helps if you spell it properly. Nothing quite spells out "irony" as well as calling somebody "retarted."' -Clark Kent on Tippmann forumer |

Is the Snapshot better to get then Bigshot?  I can get Snapshot for $82 and the price the owner of Lapco said would be going down for snapshots in a week or so.
