Re: Flatline Or response trigger

If you have a fast hopper or a cyclone feed in your marker, you should go with the response trigger.

I have an RT on my Project Salvo, and I love it.

I used to own a flatline barrel, and it was very disappointing for me. Too picky on paint and FPS. I could only get it to shoot "acceptable" (and I'm using this term very, very loosely) by using Marballizers (expen$ive), and by keeping the FPS around 260-265. Unless you have the money to spend on really good paint, and the time to set it right, I recommend you spend your money on something else. Perhaps an Apex barrel, or better yet, a barrel kit with inserts.

This is my personal experience. Perhaps someone else has another opinion.

Police protection is an oxymoron. Free citizens must protect themselves. Police do not protect you from crime. They usually just investigate the crime after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess.

Re: Flatline Or response trigger

Stock BT Apex barrels with the tip you can find them on fleabay for $25-35. If you want something better, get a Lapco Apex-ready barrel, or, a JJ ceramic barrel and a JJ Apex tip adapter (I have one on my Spyder MR1 and I love it).
