OMG some buy this for me please!

Yes, cockers lob balls, we all know this... the classic "cocker lob".

This is there attempt at a flat shooting cocker.... and it didn't go over to well, not to mention I hear they have MAD barrel breaks.

[Cryer]

Barrel breaks were one prevalent problem with my old tipmmann flatline. I tried all kinds of barrel treatments to make it smoother/etc... Then I gave up, got a mag

All guns (besides those that impart lots of backspin) lob balls. Cockers shooting around 300 fps don't magically give a paintball different ballistic properties. I just meant that backspinning a ball isn't any better than lobbing it. The ball with backspin is going to be just as likely to bounce at long range.

I don't know if I'll ever have an erection agian! I...err...nevermind.

One thing I have haerd from people that have had Flatline barrels is that if the marker is tilted to the side the balls will hook in that direction.
Most people I know have gotten rid of the HYPE barrel and went back to a convetional barrel.

Yeah I heard this too.... Apparently you can use this to your advantage however and tag people behind bunkers/trees.

I hated my 98c flatline with a passion. Seemed great at first until I realized it really was inferior to my lapco bigshot. I sold it soon after for just as much as I'd bought it for. Thank goodness for tippmann raising the prices JUST after I bought it

As for curving balls around bunkers. Sure it's POSSIBLE... But when the barrel can't hit something in clear view that you could easily do with a conventional barrel, then you'll be really sad.

To anyone trying to claim I'm an idiot. I used good paint, HPA with a lp kit, and I installed it correctly.

This 2003 Vertical Feed Flatline Autococker from WGP offers the accuracy of an Autococker combined with the distance of the Flatline

yeah... because we all know that its the name cocker that detirmines the accuracy of a marker

the owner of a local paintball shop has one and he loves it. i play with him in the woods once in a while and i cant get use to the way the pain flies but i hated the A-5 he had before it its a great gun/barrel/idea but its not for all. but i will say this ugly or not its put more then its share of paint on my butt
