Does the length on a tightbore matter?
by soccerspaz » Sat Feb 13, 2010 8:15 am
I am looking at getting an edgi 6.01 273mm, a 6.01 363mm Edgi, or a DB Customs 6.01 395mm. Which barrel would be the best barrel to go in a kwa m4 cqb with optimum performance? (for the longer barrels i will put a silencer over it)

If you can find a DB barrel in stock, I'd suggest that. I have 2 in my guns and they are amazing.
Generally, longer is better (GIGGIDTY) when it comes to barrels.

Funny how you get a CQB gun and want to then make it longer . should have just got the Carbine or the 16 to start with . Don't ya think?? Kinda like buying a Pinto and trying to make it into a Lincoln .

I think it better to do right, even if we suffer in doing, than to incur the reproach of our consciences and posterity

The longer the barrel, the more accuracy and (sometimes) range you will get. I run a 590 Tbb at 400 fps and my friend runs a 273 TBB at 400fps. I get much tighter groupings and range out 10-20 yards farther.

The difference between 590mm and 273mm, the example AsianMarksman suggested, is rather large. A 100mm difference is a bit too. But, the a 30mm difference is pretty minimal.
It is debated to death whether a longer barrel on an airsoft gun will make a difference in accuracy(then it is dug up an debated again.) I am of the opinion that it does not have very much of an affect. If you like the look of a silencer on your gun, you can either get just a silencer or run a longer barrel through it(the choice is yours.) The accuracy is dependent on the quality of the barrel not so much its length.

True, I forgot to mention that. If you get a longer barrel, go drastic. A couple inches longer isn't going to make much difference. IMO since I've compared my gun to several other guns with Madbull TBB's, a much longer barrel does improve accuracy.
