Review:
I tried the flatline and stock barreals before this one. Im gonna go ahead and save you 130$ and alot of wrinkles, dont buy the flatline. Its good the first few shot, but after that it completly messes up. If one drop of moisture or paint gets in the barrel, hopper, or front bolt u might as well go home. This J&J is absoultly awsome. It has great accuracy, is very quiet, and looks really cool. I have only broken a few balls becuase of some crappy pain, but the barrel cleaned inself right up after a few dry fires. This accuracy on this barrel is incredible. The internal teflon coating is very smooth and finely honed, you can tell the high amount of craftsman ship that went into this thing. At 150 feet, i can hit a 4 foot by 2 propane tank in 2 shots! No joke, this barrel is just amazing. I reccomend using the Proto Dart paint with this barrel because of the perfect bore sizeing, but if you're willing to fork out the extra cash, go with hellfire. In addition to being lightweight, this is also a very quiet stick. It has nice porting that doesnt start too soon or let too much air out and is perfect for woods ball or sniping tatics. If someone sticks so much as a foot out from behind a bunker, you will own them. I have the 16" and it can be a little cumbersome sometimes. But since this is a TWO piece barrel this isnt a problem, since you can just go buy another length tip. Did I mention the price? 80$ shipped and handled. Got questions? Ask me at spinserve1@yahoo.com
Conclusion:
I would reccomed this very much. If you just got a 98c and want to upgrade, buy this before anything else. Accuracy, scilence, price, and easiness of cleaning. Its all there.
