Do you think this barrel is any good for a little increase in accuracy and range over the stock 8.5 incher?

| what ctchofday said, I picked up a custom products 2 piece barrel on a site for under $30 and it immediately increased my accuracy on my 98C. Hard to say about the range as I upgraded to a HPA tank regulated lower which only allowed me to chrono in at like 258 but I didnt see much change in distance. Listen to what people are saying about the lengthy barrels though as anything over 8-12 inches is a waste. |
