if u are talking about the GTA (geniuene tippmann accecories) sniper . dont get it! get a j&jceramic or lapco bigshot. also, search the forum before posting, good luck!

next time search, this question is asked too much.

The sniper barrels are just longer stock barrels, barrel length doesn't effect anything so they suck.

Get any barrel that doesn't say GTA on it. It's just the stock barrel but longer.

Yeah, the GTA 14" sniper barrel is a waste of money, your best bet would be a Lapco Bigshot.

or best bet, if you wanna try to be a sniper is a flatline barrel. it takes some learning to get used to, but once you know how to use it, you can rule the field in woodsball. its picky with paint, so you gotta spend some extra cash to get good paint. but the extra hundered feet you fire makes it all worth it

the only hard part about a flatline is that the path of the ball takes an upward curve before coming back on target... makes close range encounters alittle.... um... interesting

don't get a GTA sniper barrel!!!  just get a j&j ceramic or if you can afford it, get a flatline all the way.  I love my flatline and it gives you the most range on the paintball field.
