Ok, so a few weeks ago me and a few friends started getting into paintballing. Trying to go every weekend, so i asked my brother if i can have his old 98c and he gave it to me. The gun is pretty old so i wasnt expecting anything amazing. Test fired it and it shot fine, i was kinda impressed. And then just yesterday i got a new flatline barrel system and a double trigger. Installed both, took me about a half hour. Went outside for a quick testfire, and i noticed immediately i was dropping paintballs out the front of my barrel. The gun is shooting fine, (I think) but whenever i aim it towards the ground i drop a paintball or two out the barrel.
 
Any help? Why is this happening??

Dropping as in rolling out ?  It sounds as if your ball stop/detent is worn.

Ok, is there anyway the flatline barrel could be touching it making it not work??

no. The design holds in in front of the barrel. It may just be worn and need replacement.
