    try getting one from 888paintball, they were in stock last night. something to keep in mind, the ball needs 8inchs to get up to speep, and anything past that is just guiding the ball, and being to long will ultimatly cause for a gas hog of a barrel, because it's going to take that much more to get the ball down the barrel and out at the right speed, thus making anything over 12-14in a waste, and all those near 2foot barrels are just for newbs to think that using a walking-stick of a barrel is going to be more accurate but instead it just makes for a huge target.

      well, i own a 10 inch boomstick, a 16 inch titanium boomstick, a 12 inch cp set, a 14 inch dye aluminum, and a 12 inch longshot. So i have all the barrel lenths covered. Id say that 14 is the most popular, and i wish i had a 14 inch tip for my cp set, because i just like the feel of it. For rec bal and air bal i use 12 inches plus. For hyperball, i use my 10-12 inch barrels. Id say if u dot know, get a 14. They are the most versitle lenths in my mind. i know when my newbie friends ask me this question i say 14, and they never change.

        Ok, yeah, i was thinking that myself, now how much of the 14 inch will be out of my gun, and not in the breech?

                  i have both a 10 and a 16, i usually shoot marbs, with the 16 the balls have no problem going to a gog shoot from the back line off the break. but it sucks when my team makes my fat *** run front line thats why i bought a 10, thats nice couse its still a nasty barrel but it allows me to stay tight
