bolt question?

[supersoaka]

i replaced the stock one with a starrfire bolt i have heard that is a bad idea for use with flatline? true or what?

[strider98]

I have a starfire bolt myself and was using a flatline a while back with it. Everything worked great with a noticable difference in accuracy on the flatline between the stock and starfire bolt. I'd say go for it.

ok kool i heard that the stock bolt is best and the rest make the flatline not work i dunno about these people


thanks

No bolt for the 98 will increase your accuracy. If anything they will be problematic. Stock bolt is best.

[pblomgren]

if you are using the flatline (or any barrel for how much these bolts suck) make sure to stay away from bolts that put extra spin on the ball such as the undertow bolt.

listen to NN, don't get an aftermarket bolt, stick with the stock one

[supersoaka]

i mean why wopuld they make different bolts if they didnt do anythign or made it worse?

[Natural Newbie]

Because alot of comanies make crap just to make money. Notice none of the aftermarket bolts are made by Tippmann?

Remember when everyone and their dog used to go and and buy Venturi bolts for their Spyders and Spyder clones? Now those same people either got new bolts or drilled out the venturis b/c they found it was better to ahve just the open face.

An aftermarket bolt is supposed to effect gas flow to the ball the Tippmann's design negates this effect b/c of the power tube and front bolt configuration. Thussly aftermarket bolts are ineffective on Tippmanns. Get it?

dont get a star fire bolt unless your stock wears out or something. Even then I would prolly still get a stock one from Tippmann. It doesnt effect accuracy. Take my advice....listen to Natural Newbie and Coenen. (thats my advice):D

im asking will it hurt the starrfire has been in for 2 monthes now

[Coenen]

You should be capable of answering your own question then, if you use it and it sucks then go back stock. I don't think that it should have a negative effect on anything, really it shouldn't have an effect on anything at all.

[supersoaka]

i got my starrfire when i got the gun then i installed it but then i got flatlien i never used flatlien on stock bolt

[Coenen]

Does the Flatline work fine with this bolt? If so, let me use a cliche adage if ever there was one.

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

If you think something is amiss put the stock bolt in for a days play and see if you notice a real difference.

i dunno the shots shoot far as all hello but they are not as acurate as i thaught they would be
