General rule for barrels is that longer = more accurate. Of course this is only a general rule, a high quality short barrel will shoot better than a longer crappy barrel.

What length barrel you want partially depends on where you play and how you like to play. If you're going to be hiding in tight spaces, having a longer gun can be a huge hindrance. I find short barrels to be especially handy for indoor play or cramped arenas with tight corners and stuff.

In the woods, if you'll be spread out and may want a sniper role or something, getting a good 12" or 14" would be fine. I've got a 14" for my Pro-lite, it's great for the spread out woods play where I can lay down and snipe someone from afar, but for speedball and indoor it's just way too long.
