Finding a good paintball barrel is all about following these 2 essential guidelines. If you don’t get these guidelines down, then chances are you will end up with a barrel that isn’t right for you. No one wants to get stuck with a 20 dollar paperweight, so follow the below 2 tips.
It’s All About The Threads!
Each different paintball gun has a certain type of threads. Threads are what the barrel has on the end of it --the part that actually screws into the gun itself. There are many different types of threads out there, so be sure you know what yours is before you start looking for a barrel. The types of threads out there include auto cocker (which is the most widely used), angel, tippmann, a5, spyder, and a ton of others. Check your owners manual, or do a quick search online to see what type yours uses.
Porting Makes Your Marker Quieter
Its true! The more holes there are in it, the quieter your marker will be! However, it is important you find one that has holes that start after 8’’. Gas expands to about this point, as it has been found by many researchers in paintball. If the porting starts before, then you will lose air efficiency, and in turn , velocity.
What Paint Will You Be Shooting?
This is a biggie, as different brands of paintballs are actually different sizes within .68 caliber. There are .682, .683, .684, .685, .686, .687, .689.… you name it --there are paintballs in that size. A simple rule is you need to find a matching barrel that has a similar sized ID (inner diameter) that will match the OD (outer diameter) of the paintball you will be shooting. Do this and you will achieve maximum efficiency and accuracy!
Follow these guidelines and you’ll be set! Getting a good barrel is as easy as the above, now just take a look around the site, by navigating the right sidebar, or even searching for what you are looking for in the search box. Again, buying from eBay is your cheapest bet when it comes to finding a paintball barrel.
