And paintball guns are not firearms, and rifles don't get chronoed prior to use. Entirely different devices and circumstances. No comparison possible. ------------- [IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/aag8s8.jpg"> |

dictionary definition of a sniper: one who eliminates opponents from a concealed location. has nothing to do with distance....so yes there are snipers in paintball...technically. also, a bullet goes alot faster and needs more barrel length to give it the proper spin and time to stabilize itself. paintballs only require between 8 and 10 inches to do stabilize..and they have no rifling in the barrel (grooves which give a bullet spin in order for it to stabilize....like throwing a football) so they dont need to spin |

First off, real snipers dont have freakisly long barrels, go to a pawn shop or sporting goods store, look at a 30-06 or somthen of the sort, thats about the same size barrel. (depending on the sniper rifle.) and second, O dear god please dont start the sniper thing... ------------- "I AM a crossdresser." -Reb Cpl Forum Vice President RIP T&O Forum |

I think we actually mathematically calculated that anything over 11" in
a normally ported barrell is in excess. But (especially in
speedball) players like to be able to wrap their bunkers more easily,
thus the lengthened barrel.
