How To Build A Paintball GunBarrel Selecting the correct type of barrel for building a paintball gun is the most important decision you are going to make. Building a paintball gun is a lot like building a car: you start with the frame and go from there. In building a paintball gun you should consider the barrel like the frame of the car. There is a large variety of materials and lengths that can be used that will drastically have an effect on your accuracy. There are two distinct variables that affect the accuracy of your paintball gun; the type of paintball used and the type and length of its barrel. Do not build a paintball gun with a barrel longer than sixteen inches. Although it will be able to propel the paintball pellet a further distance, accuracy could be affected in an adverse way. Barrel Kits and Matching Paintballs Barrel kits are oftentimes the most versatile and accurate barrels available because you are able to match the size of your barrel to the size of the paintballs you are shooting. You have to be very careful because all brands of paintballs are not always the same size. Shooting paintballs with a paintball gun that does not match the barrel will cause your gun to shoot crooked and /or the paintball to explode inside the barrel. It is very easy to find out if the paintball you intend to use fits the barrel. Just remove the barrel and drop a paintball in it. If it rolls out the barrel then the paintball is too small. If it gets stuck in the barrel and you have to blow on it to get it out, then it is too big. The best way to get a good bore-to-paintball match, for a paintball gun you are building, is to get a barrel kit that includes different barrel pieces to match different sized paintballs. In this manner you will be prepared for all types of competition. Buying and Selecting Paintballs You are usually going to get quality paintballs if you are willing to pay the price. The cheaper the paint used on the paintballs, the more dimples and inconsistencies they will have. Quality paintballs that you are going to use in a paintball gun you just built cost from $25 to $75 for 2,000 rounds. |
