Lol jk . Grabbed your attention though didnt i? Anyway i looked EVERYWHERE for an answer to this question. How long is the BT 16 Apex barrel for the 98?
Did a search on here, on google, went to BT's website, called paintball discounters. No solid answer. The guy at pb discounters said "i think it's twelve", after asking someone else there so... Anyway, i'm sure you all know the length of a barrel is pretty important when you are going to purchase it, yet NO ONE HAS IT LISTED!!! INSANE

well it is important actually... so you wouldn't mind walking around with a 20-22 inch barrel? exactly.
and there is no # for BT.

Okay, but you won't be walking around with a 20-22 inch barrel because the BT 16 is somewhere inbetween 14-16 inches.

EDIT: Also, why not email them? Its right on their website.

I wasn't trying to say that the BT16 Apex is 20-22 inches, cuz i know its not. What i was trying to say is that barrel length definitely does matter, cuz genius up there says it doesn't really matter.

and i figured i could get an answer quicker from here than i could from them, cuz places like that usually take a while to respond
