Nyte Stick or a Teardrop??

[Mirot87]

The Tear Drop is $20 more than the Nyte Stick but i heard it's hard to clean the porting and can really screw up with clogged holes?

What do you guys think?

[Surreal]

cleaning porting is EASY. turn your gun upside down, cover the end of the barrel with your hand (where the ball comes out) and dry fire 2-3 times. the air blows the paint out, and its clean.

ALSO, is the Tear Drop 'curvy' shaped? From a pic i saw once, it looked like it flares out towards the end (widest at the end). Is it a straight barrel?

[Surreal]

i wouldnt know, because ive never shot one. but, i can guarantee you this, even if it LOOKS curved, it wont hinder performance any. i stand behind ANY smart parts barrel

[Mirot87]

I can believe that it wont hurt performance, it looks like a great barrel, but out of preference, i want to look down a straight barrel. Its wierd, in some pics it looks straight in others it looks flared. :confused:

That's because they changed the style.

The new one is flared.

the Teardrop is much better than the nyte stick. Also the inner diameter is the same, the outside is flared just for looks. I clean mine the same way he said, but dont have to much cause it doesnt chop much.

teardrop. I own one on my black dragun and its got great accuracy man. The flared look doesnt effect accuracy at all. Like regulator said its just looks (even though he doesnt own one, he just stares at mine down at our field while he plays with his homemade PVC barrels, no kidding)

Alright first of all for what gun? not that it really matters.

I got a TEARDROP on my cocker and used it once but it worked sweet. The gun was silent!!! ofcourse cockers r. The tear drop looks really sweet to and has tear drop and smart parts with logo on it and looks awesome. I just ran sum water through it and it cleaned perfect. I have a 12" cause the store didnt have 14". size all depends on the game type...i play rec woods so i wish i had a 14" but didnt wanna order it off line. I SUGGES A TEARDROP !!!
i never even heard of the nyte stick.

I sold my teardrop when i got my new gun. Oh and Monkeybacon is just jealous of my PVC barrells cause the work so good. I use them as much as i use my ACI zero-gravity combo. I was thinking about using them tommorow.
