i think if u get a red dot sight/ scope, it'll get covered w/ paint and u'll spend alot of time cleaning it.mine always foged up also.instead i would save the money and buy a r/t so u can rock n roll some paint into faces.nice marker.

That's cool. I'd like to try the Apex and stock one day. Are you going to go remote? It make the gun much easier to point and shoot. ------------- Don't hate the player... Hate the game. |

nice starting gun, do some custom stuff to it also like snake6
said, get an ebolt or an r-t. they well increase your firepower
greatly, and the cyclone is good for that type of thing. get some ups,
and mill/paint, other custom jobs.......

Nice start. Just remember, if you get a reddot you'll also need a raised sight rail so you can still shoulder the gun while your aiming. ------------- One shot, One kill.... Oh, wait. What fun is that? TEN shots, one kill, and a bunch of welts on your back. |

I'd like to know how the apex is too...anyway, i would definitely go
with the response trigger. Mechanical is good for woodsball-especially
when it rains and what-not. You're off to a good start!!! Keep it up
man!

| apex ez to use but really the shooting round corner thing isnt tht great, but pitch control is fun but even witout pitch control or shooting round corners its still awsome barrel |

| What's the point of the Cyclone if you don't have any ups? I'd get an R/T or find an E-Bolt. |

| fires alot smoother with cyclone so there is sum point =p |

The Apex is a lot more accurate than people think it is, it outranges the flatline by at least 50 yards but i cant be positive of its max range because i havent found a long enough space to see the ball drop yet, its madness. The acuracy up until about setting 3 or 4 is on par with a smart parts progressive, and outranges normal barrel distance. The hook and drop shots are difficult to use in the woods unless your in a relativly clear area, but are great for shooting over hill top defenses. Its also about as loud as the flatline barrel, but twice as acurate as one at 200 feet. On settings 7 and 8 you have about the acuracy of the flatline at its top range. One drawback is that on those last 2 settings the ball drops about a foot out of the barrel and takes about 6 feet to straighten out, but it does. I would of never believed that i did this, but my friend told me that my 6 to 10 shot burst hit him in the head 4 times at 50 yards away. I was on setting 3 when i took the shot. He went out and bought the barrel the next day. The paint i used was old zap torc scented that came with a couple of breaks in the bag. This barrel is not at all picky with paint, but if you spend the little more money for the better paint, you will definatly notice the amazing acuracy. Buy it. ------------- A-5 Flatline E-Grip Tapco T-6 stock JCS Duel Trigger JCS Universal BiPod Core Remote 88ci/4500psi Crossfire R-5 Hopper Apex Barrel Hot Shot red dot Lapco offset Spec Ops A5-A2 grip |

LOL; yeah, I'm starting to find them in other threads too. Stryker, I think you should change your user name to, "the Reanimator"! Gooey's only got 16 posts...I don't think he made it. Reanimator: how are you with human subjects? -------------
