Well I was at my local shop last night and i was looking to get a barrel for my cocker when I saw this WGP barrel system. I was talking to the owner and he said WGP just released it. It comes with 4 or 5 backs and 3 fronts(10in, 12in, 14in). Had a nice milling on it but I dont think it is going to perform any better then the EVIL pipe barrel or freak.

JT and CP are a barrel system and are multibore thats why they made the front and back unscrewable cuz u can get diff sized bore backs like .693 .686 .689 same with JT

Really the best way to go is to get a 14in boomy or ultralite and two or three backs.

nice try but you forgot:
equation makes 3 diff systems
aci phat system
J&J
the empire system
the longbow
the aradus and others made the same and sold under diff brand names.

It is simple get one without inserts they work better than the insert systems, because the inserts can be alligned differently each time you put them in causing in consistant ball trajectory.

G3 the new ones are FUGLY!

i think they both look cool but i think the G3's are eaiser to tap for a gauge for the input pressure

You mean 16 right ;)

no way 16in barrels are totally useless in my opinion it just makes more friction between the ball and the barrel to slow the ball down
a 12in-14in barrel is good enuff

yeah its cuz im not a lil rich kid! :laugh::sleep:\
and ur just jealous cuz i can back up my reason why i think 12-14in barrels are more effective then a huge *** barrel thatll get in the way when ur behind a bunker

LadderingABC_Yu

u've obviously never played sup air
and the porting piece is .01 or .02 wider than the unported piece
so the ported piece doesn't create any friction

edit
-------------------------------------------
o yea if u dont' want any breaks or anymore so called "friction in ur pov" in the ported piece
then play w/o the ported piece
if i'm using crapy field paint i take off the ported piece
ported piece is just 2 silence it
it doesn't help w/ accuracy or anything

Im far from rich, or little. Im not jeleous of newbies for any reason, now i'll explain why 16 owns. If you were a real player and ever played sup air you woudl know that with a longer barrel you can push into the sides of the bunkers when snap shooting, to expose less and get shot less, you cant do that with a 12 or 14inch barrel.

16 isnt a huge barrel, and you should seriously learn how to play if you cant use a 16.

well sorry but i have no need for a 16 in barrel for the way i play....this is just a matter of personal preferance

I can sport a 16in. But I rarely get to play supair so I sport a 14in cuz its a good all around barrel.
