Okay. We've ALL heard the theory, and have the idea that the projectile trajectory will be thrown all wonky.

Practical experience says otherwise. I couldn't believe it when I first shot it... I have NEVER seen ANY airsoft gun (my long range guns included) shoot a BB so straight for so far.

The higher up you turn the hop up, the further the BB will go before it drops.

It doesn't have the classic "hop-up arc" that you'll see with a standard barrel and hop up on.

I'm not going to argue theory.

I'm just telling you the TRUTH.

There's a reason why I have them in all of my GBBs


PS: Tanio Koba barrels are rated for guns that shoot no more than 1 Joule. I imagine this is because the rifling is a bit too tight for any higher velocity. It may skip grooves.
