I recently got my flatline barrel for my 98c, but when i went to install it, I noticed that the barrel shroud didnt fit over the Cyclone Feed System I had on it. I've carved a giant chunk off the shroud so it fits, but it's noticable that I did it. Is there a replacement right barrel shroud i can buy that fits over the Cyclone?

nope. Your best bet is to sand it down and make it look pretty.

It can't be that bad unless you really messed it up lol.

You can buy the entire shorud from tippmannparts.com for $45.
What you can do about that is mill off the lip on the cyclone that sits on top
of the marker. I did it to mine and it works flawlessly.
