(copy and paste it.)
.. i would get a good barrel (12 to 14inch), a x-chamber or palmers
stabilizer, a r/t or a e-grip and maybe a double trigger. spend that
money smart.

j&j's suck? can you explain why? cause i dont want to waist my
money on something that sucks.....ok umm so you said about
300-400....man thats alot, ya go with the flatline if you like shooting
from a distance, hpa tank, ide take it, because its wayy more effitiant
then c02, even though thats all i can ifford...and the drop forward
does help ALOT! get it, it balances the gun out a little, if you didnt
know that.....and can you tell me how the R/T works? is is like pull
the trigger one shot, release one shot? how does that work? anyway
sorry about my spelling, its sucks so much.....

wow u say a j&j ceramics suck have u ever evan used one? anyways for blackdog144 "can you tell me how the R/T works? is is like pull the trigger one shot, release one shot? how does that work?" the R/T is cool because it is not automatic it just uses the co2 that norm goes nowere and makes r/t bounce your trigger back and forth off ur finger like if u pull the trigger one time and hold it it will keep bouncing off your finger and shooting sometimes they will stop but if u tune them right and find your sweetspot they call it u can hold u finger there and continue shooting for ever at around 13 bps or more :p there cool.

First of all, if your thinking of making a good sniper, dont go with flatline, because as we should all know the flatline works by putting backspin on the ball causing in to need less are and it "floats" but the "floating" can cause some very unconstant accuracy. Anyways, this is paintball, snipers use the element of secrecy and depend less on distance, cause we dont use bullets. i would go with a pretty decent length barrel like a 14-16'' j&j or bigshot. Also there is this new sniper called a "longbow" It looks really pimping check it out at http://www.specialopspaintball.com - www.specialopspaintball.com They know everything there is to know about woodsball

wow thats the dumbest thing to buy dont you kno the longer the
barrel the less distance you get be cause the barrel
gets frection to
the   ;
ball and it gives more of a chance for your paintballs to
chop the best barrels are from 12" - 16"
