I want to put a 14" barrel and a stock that still lets me look down the sights. Any info would be nice. |

There are barrels that don't allow you to look down the sights? -------------

| I'm alittle new to paintball too but i would suggest getting a 12'' JJ ceramic and I don't think there is a stock that allows you to look down the sights. I may be inncurrect about that tho. |

Well, what gun do you have, cause if you have a Tippmann A5, you wouldn't be able to use the sights regardless of having a stock or not, since your mask prevents you from getting your eyes close enough to the gun.

| ive seen stocks that are angled down, that might help, when i picked up my red dot sight i made my own offset/riser for it then i learned red dots are useless....barrel kits are good, i found a barrel kit called a knockout its not the best but it is light, acurate, has multiple fronts allowing oyu to change the total barrel length, its like 10",12",14"16"18", but with an adaptor for cocker to a5 or 98 the largest is about 20", and its super quiet, but the larger barrel sucks gas so fast... |

I agree with blasterboy you can't beat the 12" j&j. Depending on how you play, the 12" barrel will help you with length problems (with a stock) but still give you improved accuracy. The 12" j&j is the best mod i made to my a-5 ------------- Black Swamp Gators |

Check-out the Tippmann Longbow stock. Its made to go around your mask. ------------- I'm not lost...I just like to walk around the woods in circles!!! |
