Doc's Flashpoints

[Onryou]

Using one as a tip, how long does it make the barrel overall?

[Chronobreak]

they add 1"

[Onryou]

i realize they add 1" but i don't have a freak back to go by. I was hoping someone, with a freak back, could do the math for me.

[sithos]

i believe the freak insert is 5 inches, so 5 inches + 1 inch + threading? just a guess.

[CaliWagon31]

i have used one of the TAG tips, it made the barrel about 6-7 inches. Very tight, very fun to use.

So whats the point of a Flashpoint?

[LudavicoSoldier]

LOL! Short barrel I suppose. Thats what I bought mine for.

EDIT: POST 666!! w00t!!

[_tMAN]

well I knew that, nice post count by the way, but wouldn't that dramatically decrease the accuracy of the barrel?

[TheTramp]

It will not effect the accuracy because the only part of a Freak barrel that effects the balls flight in any important way is the control bore portion.

With that said I like to have plenty of extra barrel so I can work my cover more effectivly but not for any accuracy reasons.

I play in a couple of very tight indoor fields with wood bunkers. The flash point tip allows a very small profile and gets you closer in to those bunkers. For airball I still prefer a longer tip.
