What is the difference between the Apex paintball barrel and a regular?

Answer 1

The apex barrel has a can-like tip with an adjustable flap that allows the operator to put spin on the ball. You can put spin from setting 0 (regular barrel) to 8 (extreme spin) the farther you set it, the more spin it will have, and the farther it will go. This being said, the higher you go, the less accurate the shot is, and it will shoot a a slight downward angle from the tip. It is also adjustable left an right, allowing you to curve the ball behind objects left and right or downward quickly over a bunker.

It is a much better than a regular barrel for range, and is much more accurate and adjustable than the flatline, which is a curved barrel the puts a set amount of spin on the ball.
