    barrel lengths

    I currently a minimag. I am looking at upgrades and just kind of browsing through my options. If i were to get a barrel what length would work the best with a minimag?? What trigger frame do you guys recommend??

    i just got a new barrel. i got a 12 inch dye alluminum (www.paintballbarrels.com) for $50. shoots very accurate and very quiet. that is unless you decide to play a woods game and shoot at people ontop of a hill. if you have a guy hiding behind a buncker in speedball and youre pinning him with paint 25 feet away, a 12 inch is great. however the snipe shots from 200 feet im used to with my 16 inch on my other gun are gone. im gonna say that a 14 inch is the best of both worlds if you play both. if u just play speedball i'd go with a 12, if u just play woods i'd say a 16.

      Trigger frame = AGD IntelliFrame, no doubts there.

      As far as barrels, it's a trade off. It depends on what you want. The longer the barrel length doesnt make the marker shoot further, it does however make the marker more quiet and less efficient on gas.

      all you need is a barrel that's 8-10in(unported) 12in ported is alright. Stock barrels are a heck of a lot better than most ppl think. The main thing besides length in a barrel is its bore size. You want something that's going to fit the paint your going to be using. That's why it's good to have at least three different barrels (one small,med,large-bore) or a freak-set(bad on gas but great for paint-to-barrel match)

        I agree with both. I have a Mini (Dark Supermag ) with a 12 in Dye Alum and I-frame. Both work really well, especially the I-frame. Night and day from the stock frame.
