okay i wonder if this would liquid in the ball moving, sorta like shaking the glass of water while you spin it (the water moves). I havent really thought about it that much so it probably is flawed, but heres the idea:

well, there is a thread about this same thing just a little below this. its something about rifling, and we determined (last year at that) that it would never work. plus, you know what kind of god-awful amount of air would be required to drive the ball down that? ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

here's what he is thinking: instead of "rifling" the barrel, make it look like a corkscrew, so you you can get momentum and centrifigul forces instead of just spinning the ball. we already figured out it aint gonna work. ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

and uh how much did that X-ray cost you or do you just have one laying a round? Oh... and rifling a paintball barrel does work they are called Armson stealth barrels they are kind of rare but they are worth the $50- 120 and they are bad *** maybe not the range of a flatline, but alot tighter pattern at longer range. (without the trouble of "TWEAKING" it.) My buddy used one in a turney and was making head shots at 100+ yards poed one dude off so much that he was told next time he goes, hit him somewhere else other than the head!!!(I was told that dude was hit no where else but in the head 5 or 6 times) ------------- 1 paintball gun package=$150 1 case of paint=$50 air & entry fee=$15 lighting up newbies all day long= Priceless |

Yes I have seen it we were putting one foot +/- 5 in patterns at 100 yards, aiming way up mind you. now yes not all were staying in that pat but some were. ------------- 1 paintball gun package=$150 1 case of paint=$50 air & entry fee=$15 lighting up newbies all day long= Priceless |

I think if you attach enough flatlines together you could shoot straight upwards. ------------- Eat The Brisket |

Armson Stealths aren't rare, and they certainly are not good, and they don't add any range of any kind, they act like any normal barrel. I owned one, and it was just the same as my Evil Driver, no difference in anything. I'm amazed people still beleive in the rifling marketing gimmick. If rifling actually did something...wouldn't all manufacturers still use it? Wouldn't Smart Parts still have a rifled barrel? They just don't work like they're advertised, it's like the 21" "straight rifled" barrels by Thunder Pig, they advertise those as adding distance + accuracy, I actually bought one, and all it did was add topspin, no matter what paint I used. ------------- [IMG]http://i27.tinypic.com/1538fbc.jpg"> Squeeze Box ☣ |
