Good Barrel for under and around 60$

[LukasDaShooter]

Trying to upgrade from my 16" Linear barrel (too long) what are some good barrel choices? :confused:

[GrimAssasin]

You can pick up a pipe kit or possibly other used kits for that price. Other barrels to look at would be Redz Pepperstickz, Custom Products, and Palmers Brass.

CP 1 piece or PPS Brass Barrel.

Thnx the store where i get all my pb stuff from has CP barrels so ill get the 2-piece.

I don't know how much they are at your shop but they go for about $60 online. You can get a one piece CP barrel instead of a two piece for half that price and have pretty much the same barrel.

[LukasDaShooter]

at my store it is 70$ (canadian) so about the same price (w/ s+h)

[LukasDaShooter]

plus they dont have 1 piece

[iliveforthis99]

See if they can order one of try and find one online. Paying out that much for a two piece barrel for a 98 is simply a waste of money. If the 98 was cocker threaded or heck even Impulse threaded then it wouldn't be a bad idea. But due to Tippmann using such an exclusive barrel treading it's not worth paying so much for a barrel. Granted if you got another gun down the road you could just get a new back but then that's up to $90USD right there. You can pick up new and used barrel kits for cheaper then that.

lol i can get a new back for 40$

try a lucky 15 or un1tech which they still sell on pbn new

[iliveforthis99]

Or a Furious Lotus which is the exact same as the Lucky un1tech barrels i think.

[fallenAngel13]

i thought i might get one but there are no reviews and the only place you can buy them is on pbn, anyone acually used one... and it is a 2 piece more like the warped sportz lucky 15. un1tech is a 1 piece with a 2nd piece that is like an adapter, i know i use one its great works just as well as a boomstick.:cool: i personaly like the 15 more

Does using a barrel adapter affect performance?

[iliveforthis99]

It can. The adapters bore size can sometimes be quite different from the bore size of the barrel. Depending on the bore sizes, using it w/ a one piece barrel probably won't be to bad. Bit using it with a kit pretty much defeats the purpose of getting a kit.

Oh and next time make a thread or search, no need to hijack someone else's thread.
