| Review: |
To start off the lapco autospirit barrel is a great addition to the tippmann 98c.
PROS:
Accuracy- This barrel is really accurate! Tested from 50’ and could hit the same spot over and over and over (within maybe 8-10” grouping (sorry I’m Canadian, not great with imperial measurement)).
Fire’s straight, no hooks or curves
Looks really cool, has a nice finish.
No breaks, put 200 rounds through fireing as fast as I could and didn’t break 1! Only time I had a ball break was when I ran out of CO2 and the gun misfired (the bolt didn’t catch).
CONS:
Loud, loud, loud! This thing sounds like a cannon when you fire it. This is because the porting is at the very end of the barrel. Not to much of a big deal for me, but some may mind.
Hard to clean- found the porting to be really hard to clean after a ball break. Paint gets stuck in the holes.

| Conclusion: |
BUY IT! Great barrel for small-med bore paint! Will never let you down. I give it an 8 because the porting it hard to clean and its a little bit on the loud side. Accuracy is great and its is light.
