    why does a boomstick make this sound

    ive noticed that when a guy i play with shots at me, it makes this killer sound when its cutting through the air,
    """its kinda scary, hehe""" lets just say u know to put your head down, he uses an ans cocker w/tit. boomstick
    no one else's seems to make that sound, i also noticed that
    he let another guy use one of his boomstick barrels on his cocker and the next game his sounded the same way so

    is it the barrel spinnig the ball or somthing, or
    just the cocker, boomstick combination causing this, and when he uses his all american barrel he loses the sound effect.

    but i have not noticed this from an other barrel or gun on my field so any insight would be good,

          it is the sound of the paintball coming buy, thats what im talking about. it makes a diff sound when it comes buy, than when a paintball is shot from another gun

          is it the boomstick

          or the cocker

          or the cocker and the boomstick together

              You sure you're not just imagining things? What kind of paint were they shooting? It could have been that.

                did it make a *fwup* sound? is that what you mean? instead of the whistling *sheeeeuuuu* sound. don't have any ideas as to why. just trying to figure out what sound it could've been.

                  I know the sound!

                  its like a damn loud butterfly passing by your ears at 300fps right?

                  Well.. at least thats the sound my armson barrel makes when my friends shoot it from behind me.. actually, my friends dragon barrel makes the exact same sound when shot from behind me... always causes me to duck and see what the hell is back there
