i play front quiet often on our team and i got a stock progressive impulse on my gun and, i was wondering would it be appropriate to get a 10inch to keep a small profile or is not really worth it and a 12 inch isnt that much larger and its more accurate, which length do the professional front players use?

is the accuracy pretty much the same between a 10 inch and a 12 inch barrel?

Depends what kinda' field they're playing.
12 if you mostly play airball, 10 if not.

If its airball I'd go for a 14" or 16", if its Hyperball or something like that, prolly 12".

Well I would say 15" but nobobdy besides Warped Sportz has figured out that its the best size. Get a 12".

if you play air ball go for a 14in. both my front players use 14in barrels and they both love it.

no more than 16 for a front or any other player, i'm a front and use a 12 inch but thats just me. Many front would prefer a long barrel to "push the bunker with the barrel to get a better shot.

Ah, but you see, the 12 inch isn't more accurate... I think you should play with both, to see which you like best... I, myself would go for an 11 when running vert. air, and well.... nothing tooo big with a backbottle.

Hi, I play front alot too and I decide what length to use depending on the size of the field. Get a "12 and a "14 that is what I use and it has not left we wanting another sized barrel.

Do not get less than 14. Trust me.
