i have a spyder extra wiht a new bolt and a new e-grip. Im going to buy a new barrel for it. I heard these two were the best. J&J Ceramic or a Smart Parts barrel (but i dont know which one yet). If someone wiht expericnce and maybe that has this barrel or this gun could point me in the right direction that would be very helpful. I have bought a bad barrel in the past (CMI 21 incher) and i dont want to buy another bad one.

Iv had both and hands down smart parts. Less chops more accuracy. Not as quiet. other then that smart parts is better in any other aspect imo.

**bobjr247** · September 13th, 09:20 PM

thanks. yah i was thinking the same thing. But is there a certain smart parts model that you would recomend.

**blank879** · September 13th, 09:22 PM

progressive or teardrop, both are great

**bobjr247** · September 13th, 10:17 PM

whast the diffrence between them. does the teardrop just have more style?

**pballman31** · September 13th, 10:29 PM

progressive and teardrop are basically the same it's all personal prefrerance(sp)? I personally like the look of the teardrop better

**blank879** · September 13th, 10:30 PM

progressive is 10 bucks cheeper, and looks just as good imo

**bobjr247** · September 13th, 10:45 PM

i think im gonna go with the teardrop.

**KrAzAyInSaNe** · September 15th, 09:58 PM

progressive is more practical...CHeaper, same performance

**blank879** · September 15th, 10:56 PM

its all preferance. but your right, id buy the progressive too

**Ryan_P** · September 15th, 11:00 PM

**bobjr247** · September 16th, 07:29 PM

**BC_paintballa** · September 16th, 07:35 PM

If u are all about performance get a evil pipe kit or something of that nature. Try a dye ultra light or boomstick. the teardrops arnt as good as MOST of the more expensive barrels

**terrible1fi** · September 16th, 11:47 PM

get a progressive, its awesome, accurate and less chops(if you had any) with a good paint/barrel match

**Mr_Pain** · September 17th, 01:20 AM

the teardrop and J&J ceramic both (in my experience) performe the same except the J&J is less $$ and quiter, but the teardrop looks cooler. I have never broke a ball in eather and like them equaly.
