Review:
My first experience with the barrel was quite pleasant today, as I shot it and realized exactly how quiet it really was. It's a bit more silenced than the stock barrel, and works like a charm. If you're using good paint, there shouldn't be any problems with breaks in the barrel. Porting holes are a bit big, but don't let that scare you, it won't eat your air and they're far enough down the barrel to keep it nice and quiet.
*UPDATE!* I recently have used this barrel more and more! It's NICE! Works well with Big Ball, or any other .689 paintball. It's quite the accurate little stick. Quiet as well...Two days ago people were asking me what it was, they liked it a lot. I told them it was an ugly stick....They had no clue what the hell it was. Mostly because I took the stickers off...I just didn't like the color of the text, it was a bit repulsive to me :P Anwyay, So all is well with the barrel, DEFINATELY GET IT IF YOU NEED A CHEAP UPGRADE ON YOUR ION!!!! Stock's good, this one's a bit better. Shoot's nice.
Conclusion:
Overall good for the price. If you're looking for a quick upgrade or just an additional item to get free shipping, it's a good idea. I'm impressed with the accuracy.
