Review:
Look down this barrel and you will see a beautiful mirror finish. This gives you great accuracy as there are not imperfect surfaces on the inside for the paintballs to catch on. Pair this with a dot sight, and you're hooked up.
Most aftermarket barrels give you little, if any improvement in accuracy over the stock barrel. This one's different than any other barrel I've ever owned (except the Interceptor of course). Buy it and see an instant improvement in your grouping.
Conclusion:
For less than half the price of a Boomstick or a Stiffi, you can get the same performance with this barrel.
Paint type scratches easily. But, all will when rubbed on a rock. lol
Review:
Well, not much to say except WOW.
I've used quite a few barrels, and I havent yet seen one that matches its accuracy, distance and look. Accuracy at 10' is perfect, 20' same, and so on. When you get to about 80' - 150', then the wind will have time to grab a ball, lol. Basically, I cant believe how far this barrel shoots, but not only how far, how accurate it is at the max distance. No one on the field compares, except maybe the Flatlines.
The look of this barrel is amazing. The feel is beautiful, and the sound it produces is loud and intimidating.
for the price, great deal! Im so glad I researched before buying, or I might have gun with something else.
Conclusion:
No regrets! Best I've seen. Good price. Favorite barrel. BUY IT!
