  • i have a flatline that came with my a5 stealth. but if i wanted to throw on a different barrel how would i do that cus as far as i can see when i remove the flatline there are no grooves or nething to screw in a different barrel.

  • Call Tippmann and they will send you a Barrel Adapter for free.

  • my a-5 came with standard barrel mounted and flatline in a bag , shouldnt all of them come wit standard barrel?plus a question what would b a good cheap barrel 2 use as a secone one couse this one field i go 2 makes u buy their paint and it brakes alooot in my flatline

  • If your's came with a regular barrel and a Flatline, then Tippmann must be doing something new. I've never seen a stealth come with a standard barrel before.

    For a good cheap barrel, I have heard great things about the J&J Ceramic, and I've also heard nice things about the RAP4 Recon Barrels.

    I prefer to use at least a $50 barrel, but I have seen the J&J do some great things with bad field paint.

  • hey, I'm having a problem trying to undo the flatline. I removed the screw but the whole barrel does not want to come out. Any suggestions? Also, I was thinking of getting a J and J barrel what would you recommend for durability and accuracy

  • Grab one of those can opening pads(super gripy things) and give it a good heave.

    As for barrels, the J&J is really good for the price. I use a Special Ops C-Series barrel with an Apex Tip.

  • dam i heard these were amazing but i just bought a 16 inch barrel. is it really that significant of a difference? is it a must buy for the a5

  • Lots of you are having problems get your barrels out of the housing. 1). You don’t need to disassemble this bit of kit so relax about it. 2). Pout the barrel in hot water near but NOT boiling point. Heat barrel for about five minutes. Use heavy gloves and apply force. 3). Do not hit, shock or abuse the barrel in anyway. If it still will not come apart take it to a competent air smith and get him to do it for you. But expect him to ask you why you need to take it apart in the first place.

  • Stupid me.... i had a Tippmann A-5 an i traded it for a Piranha GTi. Tippmann and Spyder are the best markes ive ever owned in my book.

  • yeah i can't get my barrel out the tube what do ya do????

  • mine wont come out!!!!

  • cool vid

  • my barrel doesnt twist when i unscrewed in like u showed in 1.53....why wont it move have any clue?

  • @tommidrab Do you mean that the balls spats in the barrel? Are you sure its the barrel? xD You know its pretty smart to use a Squishy paddle for your cyclone feeder :P

  • @6iPWNi9 thx for replyin 2 a year old q. no sarcasm. i already bought some cp barrel 30$ but it sucked.then i got an apex but it sucked wit stock barrel so i got an apex ready lapco n put the apex tip on it and i like it :)

  • @tommidrab A J&J 14 inch barrel will be perfect for ur a5
