Im looking to buy a new cheap/accurate/silent barrel for my GT-2000 (which fits spyder parts). I have a tight budget and have made a list of a few barrels. Which one should I get? Give me some info if u can about some. Also, what is bore, and do I need a specific bore for my gun?

If u want the best, u shoudl spend the extra money and get a boomstick, theyre one of the most accurate and quiet guns, along with the best range, cept for a flatline, but u cant put one on a piranhi. i have one, and i love it, it makes my gun ten times queiter, and it is incredibly acurate, i get twice as many kills now cuase i can shoot farther and more accurate. Definelty buy a boomstick

Ya get the Dye boomstick this barrel is the best in the market. Dont worry about the extra money you have to spend for the barrel it pays off when you see how much a$$ you kick with it. It has good accuracy on my piranha and never breaks balls.

A boomstick is not that much better than a bigshot or J&J ceramic. SO if your going to spend the money you might as well get a J&J and a bigshot for about $90-100

What part of "I'm on a tight budget" dont u guys understand? The reason I only put $40-50 barrels as choices was because I couldnt afford J&J or definitely not boomsticks. Can u please stick to the choices and help me out with the barrels I listed.

Im not pissed, just wondering why u guys gave me advice on barrels that werent even listed as choices. If i were interested in those expensive barrels, they would have been in the poll. Im trying to narrow down these 5 choices!

Petwoody that's not a true statement. I'm on a tight budget and i still play. Antiramie, the J&J Ceramic barrel is on sale right now at BBtpaintball.com for 40 bucks. YOU CAN't BEAT THAT~! hehe i got one...shoot 40 bucks for a JJ Ceramic is a steal. IFyou dont' like them for some reason, get a Lapco Big Shot for 10 bucks more. Hope that helped :)

Like i said earlier and TL, get a J&J or Bigshot, performs as good as a boomie and much better than the barrels you listed.

well, if u ask me, u should just save ur money untill u have enough for the boomstick, I ve shot the j&j, carbon fiber, ice cold, but not the big shot, and the difference between a 16 boomstick and these barrel was extremly noticable. If u live ne where in the north, right now isnt exactually a time u can play too often, so jsut bare it out with ur stock barrel, and save up for the boomy, but if u insist on getting a barrel now, ge thte ice cold or j&j, i know someone with both, and he never breaks paint with the,, and theyshot fairly accurate, but still not as good as a boomstick

i shot the boomstick and the JJ Ceramic when i was looking for my barrel. I saw no difference in accuracy. The boomstick was a little quieter, but accuracy was the same.

A lot of people ahev said a alot of diferne things, but for me, the boomstick has been the best barrel ive shot, thatsh why i bought it Im not trashing other barrels, its jsut for me, and where i play, and what paint i shoot, its has been the most accurat, quiet, and has excelent range. But since antiramie is on a tight budget and probably wont wait to save up the 110 bucks for it, which is a down side to the barrel, i gotta agree with u tlplus84 and say the j&j is an excellent barel
