Piranha STS G3 with 16" winforce, dye grips, 20oz co2, R-2000 Regulator ricochet AK. Home made drop forward, trigger job, and extra vertical feed hole.
Recommended Paintballs:
These are a couple of the balls I've used and had no trouble with, RPS, super-swirl, winchester, zaps, and dusk diablo.
Strengths:
This barrel is great! I have had no problems with it. It is very accurate, and some what quite. I have a 16" barrel and had a 12". Until I sold it to a friend, he just fell in love with it and had to have it. I can tell you one thing tho the 16" is way more accurate than the 12", that 4" sure does make a big difference. This barrel is thin very light, but as some people say It's cheap because it's thin wrong, because I play in the wood I've hit tree's hard and when jumping over logs somethings shove it in the dirt 1" or 2, But still good as new.
Weaknesses:
nothing at all!!
Conclusion:
If your looking for a accurate and some quite barrel, than I recommend this barrel to you.
Rating:
10 out of 10

Ive only shot them with diablo they seem to work fine
Strengths:
Extremely accurate i shot it at a tree form about 20 yards away and was making a great close cluster. Really quiet too a lot quieter than my stock barrel. Very light definently one of the lightest barrels ive ever used. This barrel is a lot better than the Nyte Stikk just as a hint.
Weaknesses:
Should have bought 14" but i dont think Taso makes it.
Conclusion:
Great for a Spyder this is very good if your new to the sport and dont have a lot of money to spend on a Dye or Smart Parts. Go out and get this barrel!
stock on my spyder TL+, stock on my friends Pirahna PRO TS G3
Marker Setup:
Kingman Spyder TL+, DYE grips
Recommended Paintballs:
PMI Premium
Strengths:
This barrel shoots great. I shot a full case of premium without sliming my barrel! One of the best barrels I've ever shot, regardless of the money. I was realy hesitant to buy this barrel; I thought it would be crap becouse of its low price, but it has a VERY tight pattern, I havn't like measured it yet, but you can see the differance on the field, BUY this barrel!!!! It was also lighter that my stock barrel witch is a major plus for a heavy set-up
Weaknesses:
Almost nothing, the only reason I gave it a nine is becouse nothings perfect.
Just please dont buy balls from Wal-mart like a stupid 14 year old newbie.thanks.
Strengths:
Barrel is more accurate than my 16" DYE barrel, Out of the 10 guys I play with this is the best barrel...Quite and accurate. Great for the price. Dull color thats hard for other people to see. Spins the ball really fast. shoots straight.
Weaknesses:
Could come in like 16", but 14" is good, not the prettiest..but there is nothing bad about the barrel.
Conclusion:
For the money, It's the best barrel I've used to date...its a must buy for anyone who doesnt wanna spend a ton on a barrel...They want me to write 100 words for the review and its pissing me off.
spyder compact 2000 with an added shroud 4 stage expansion chamber and a bottom line setup with a drop forward
Recommended Paintballs:
marbalizers and 32* team colors and diablo midnight
Strengths:
there are many things that are very good with this barrel. this is one of the quietest barrels ive ever played with and one of the most accurate for the price. my friend has a 14" j&j on his shutter and than he strapped on the winforce and was amazed. when i bought this barrel i compared it with a nyte stikk and i chose the winforce my other friend who has a terminator on his shutter strapped this on and was amazed as well. with the one year playin with it only about 2 or 3 ball breaks
Weaknesses:
almost none. the only problem is the price. its way too low
Conclusion:
if u are out to get a very good barrel for a low price get this one and show off to ur friends how much of a great barrel this is.
32 degrees terminator barrel - didnt see a significant difference
Marker Setup:
tippmann model 98 with the 16" winforce other than that stock but i have good intentions
Recommended Paintballs:
anything but brass eagle
Strengths:
shoots long makes the balls fly faster and more accurate theres no crome at all on it which makes it harder to pick up in a woodland environment and its good on not breaking balls inside it
Weaknesses:
all the times i used it i really only found that i dont like about it is that when your walking around and your really quiet it sticks out a little and my teamates can pick up on it easier than my 8.5" stock barrel
Conclusion:
overall i found it good but im not giving it a 10 simply because i havent used it all that long but in due time my review may change about it i feel that if you want a relatively cheap upgrade go for it
Quiet, accurate, good price & nice clean look. Have yet to have a ball bust with the Winforce/Shutter combo. Have shot maybe 6,000 rounds so far. I used it on a Spyder Sport for awhile, and it work as good as it could with that gun. Breakage of balls was still at a minimum.
Weaknesses:
Nothing as of yet. When I upgrade to compressed air, I hope it works even better.
Conclusion:
Cheap barrell that works great with my Shutter...
I give it a 10 with the stock Shutter, with give it an overall 9 since I haven't shot with compressed air yet.
jt balls or any other small size pro ball also worked well
Strengths:
very light, and very quiet. i have the 16 verison and for those that say that longer makes no different you sirs are wrong, one thing good about longer barrels is that you can aim off of them but i have found out that longer barrels can give you a little bit more range. very quiet again.
Weaknesses:
very thin and i'm afraid that i will trip and fall on it and it will crack
This is a real good barrel. I got mine for $45. It's 18" long. It really quieten my Maverick down. Anybody that has shot a maverick,knows how loud they are. Now it takes them a minute to figure out where I'm at. It performs great and is easy to clean and maintain. Highly recommended.
Weaknesses:
I don't have anything bad to say about this barrel.
Conclusion:
it's an awesome barrel,very accurate and quiet. Would suggest to anybody that they get one.
