Bah, don't get a sight, it'll make you look newbieish.
Barrels..depends on what kind of paint you're using. Ceramics are .688, Progressives are .689 (ok, not a BIG difference). I say go with a 12" ceramic, they're very smooth and self clean well.

Don't get a sight, the chances that you'll actually use it are very low.

Get the progressive instead of the ceramic.. yeah is has the ceramic but it wears out. Progressive is quieter.

No, just keep it simple and get the progressive. If you were to spend alot of money on a barrel, go for the freak kit.

CP barrel is not too bad and is quite resonably priced, for the autococker, I mean. The All american stainless is good, Ceramic barrels dont wear out contrary to what the guy above said. They are not ceramic like you think of pottery, but a combination of metals blended together instead of just aluminum or stainless steel.
