Can someone tell me if Model 98 / Custom Pro threads are the same threads as the 98 custom? I want to buy a barrel that says: Model 98 / Custom Pro threads and I have an Alpha Black which takes 98 custom threads, I just want to be sure that it will fit. Thanks for your help! |

if its a 98 thread, it would fit all 98s and the alpha black -------------

You should be ok with any 98C /Model 98 barrel made in the last 5 years. At some point, Tippmann changes the threads slightly. A newer 98 threaded barrel should fit any 98 (or the Alpha Back), regardless of age. However, old 98 barrels will not fit a new 98 without a thread adapter. If you are buying a new barrel, don't worry. If you are buying an old, used barrel, be wary of the possibility that it won't fit correctly.
