Review:
Before I got this barrel I was playing with the Flatline barrel system, which was fine but it was not my style. I wanted a shorter barrel so I bought myself the Lapco Bigshot and it is great, especially in urban set games and anytime you need to play tight. I like to be in the front lines and move around a lot so a compact set-up for my marker is a must have. The barrel is very consistent and shoots at the same place every time. Anything within 100 feet will be a sure hit with this barrel. In one game I dove into a bunker and ran the barrel into a pile of dirt and it got all in the barrel, but I just shot off a few rounds and I was back in action. Moreover, the barrel was fine! there were no scratches or anything and I really hit the barrel hard. It is a good barrel.
Conclusion:
Get this barrel if you don't mind one that is a little louder. It is accurate and very well built. The bead-blasted finish is really nice. If you want a compact set-up and you are looking to move around a lot, this is the barrel for you. Hope this helped.
