Can someone help me out for choosing a good mid-close range barrel that would be able to handle a high rate of pbs for my Tippmann A5 ?
I already have 1 suggestion (Palmer Pursuit Shop) just wanted to see if anyone else had any others unless the one given to already is the best one.
Please and Thank You

I like the Lapco stuff. Something like a Lapco Big Shot (one piece) which goes for about $45 and is plenty accurate. They come in flat black so if you are playing woodsball shiny won't give you away.

High ROF out of an A5, that's a good one. Anyway for one piece barrels look into like the PPS Brass barrel, J&J Ceramic, and a CP Classic one piece. Depending on your budget though you can probably pick up a nice used barrel kit as well.

yeah, whatever barrel you think will best suit your needs really...high rof has nothing to do with a barrel.

Definitely go with the flatline if you're willing to spend $100 on a barrel. If you don't want to spend a fortune on a barrel check out the proto 1 piece barrel. It's only $30 and it's accurate as hell. The pmi razzor barrel isn't too bad either. I got mine for $20 and it's pretty accurate. Definitely better than the a-5 barrel. Also don't get anything longer than 16". 14"-16" is all you need for a barrel. 20" barrels decrease the distance you get on paintballs and makes you look like a total n00b.
im just wondering what to bye?

First don't hijack others threads. Second search this has been asked before. Third it's buy not bye. But anyway neither will do much to help and they're more gimmick then practical IMO. Although the Apex is the better since it does shoot a little better then the Flatline. The extra range though is near enough to pointless since the further the paint goes the less likely it'll break. Get a nice one piece or barrel kit instead.
