| Review: |
Well i found this item on ebay for 30 bucks for us 5 that were lucky enough to find it and order it :D
Anyways back to the review. This barrel is very very nice. The first thing i had noticed was the weight. I just couldn't believe something so light was in my hands.
The back bore was made of polished stainless steel. For some of you you might discourage the fact of a heavy metal on your gun. But do not fret, the weight of the CF and the steel evens things out. And with the weight closer to you you can flick the gun at any direction with no problems.
When i shot this barrel it was very nice. Though it was pretty loud due to a lack of porting. But when i had a barrel break the grouping was actually still very on target. From 50 feet grouping was about 5 inches and grouping was a 2 feet for the first few shots and then 1 foot when shooting through a break in the barrel. IMHO, this is a very good barrel when it comes to shooting and shooting through breaks
Though there was one discouragement with my barrel. Some might not notice this but upon very close inspection the clear protective coat protecting the CF began to chip at the front of my barrel. It's nothing too serious as it was a tiny chip but i'd might as well include it in this review.

| Conclusion: |
I would definitely recommend this barrel to anyone as it is stylish and dependable. |
