very light, very strong, accurate, and equally as quiet as a boomstick
Weaknesses:
I haven't found any yet...
Review:
Strengths:
Light - this is the lightest barrel I have ever used. It doesn't even feel like it is there
Strong - When I bought the barrel, I got crap from my friends, because they though it would break easily. Well, it comes with a keychain made out of the same stuff, and after setting it on the edge of a counter and hitting it with a hammer numerous times, it didn't break. Anything else would've broke or bent with what we did. oh, and the key chain is only half as thick as the barrel.
Accurate - not quite as accurate as a freek, but darn close
Quite - for those of you that have shot a boomsitck, this is just as quiet. I have shot both, and they sound the same. At the local shop, a friend of mine that has a boomy shot a shot than I did, and there was virtually no difference in noise. This barrel is quiet.
Weaknesses:
The only weekness that I might be able to come up with is the cost. It is not the cheapest barrel ever, but it is well worth the money. If you look around enough, you can find it for about $100. In my opinion, it is one of the best single bore size barrels. The boomstick is good also, but it also costs a lot more.
Conclusion:
I strongly reccomend this barrel. It is well worth the money and is better than the original boomsticks.
What ever fits the bore size, draxxus always shoots good and gap
Strengths:
Hella light, shoots money and great porting design
Weaknesses:
None, the st!ffi is a wicked barrel
Review:
I got to first see these barrels at the CCM shop. I fell in love with the weight of them. Later in the year i got to shoot one and it was better then i imagined plus the spuer light weight of the barrel made everything a lot better. The SITE guys are great people to deal with, super nice and they make very very good products.
Conclusion:
if people want to be able to play at there best they should be comfortable and this barrel makes everything so comfortable by it being so light. It shoots better then barrel systems and its a pleasure to have them as a sponsor.
used many barrels in the past JT, Boomstick, Lapco, all have good points. Most barrels are accurate not too many are quiet. This one is about the quietist you'll find, it's right up there wih the boomstick. Accurate as all hell and it's as light as a feather.
Marker Setup:
Y2k Cocker, custom splash anodized, Max Flo, Shocktech, ANS, Kapp, Eclipse E-blade, all of the best
Recommended Paintballs:
marbs, allstars, evil
Strengths:
very quiet and very accurate
Weaknesses:
Can't anodize carbon fiber
Review:
Accurate as all hell, quiet as al hell and light as all hell. It doesn't get much better than this barrel fellas. The only bad thing is that you can't custom anodize it to match your marker. It looks pretty cool anyway. Somebody has to do something about the amount of words you need to put in this area. Don't they read the reviews and see how many people complain about this? If I felt I had all night to sit up and write a review with 500 words I would but I don't have that kind of time.
Conclusion:
They say the carbon fiber will outlast steel, if that is the case......there isn't a barrel around that will stand up to this one.
Dye Boomstick - Not even close
Freak - Close but no cigar
Marker Setup:

Recommended Paintballs:
I am a Marbs and All-Star fan
Strengths:
Weight (or lack of), strength and accuracy - shoots darts
Weaknesses:
Price, but is worth every penny when compared to competition
Review:
I have used this barrel for a month now and it is great. During during tests, here is what I have found:
20 yards - One big splat
30 yards - One big splat
40 yards - Excellent grouping. Off marks were high or low. No spin offs
40+ - Good for the distance. No spin offs. All strays were high or low
Compared to the boom stick and Freak, this is far superior. The bore size is consistant and accurate, unlike Dye who tends to have a bore size smaller than specs. With the Boom stick, even All-Stars were getting stuck and breaking. I have yet to have ball break in this barrel.
Conclusion:
That's easy - buy this barrel and sell your others one as you will never take them out of the case again.

Diablo Inferno or Hellfire
Strengths:
Light as Hell
Quiet as Hell
Super Smooth Internally
Weaknesses:
Nothing, This barrel is kick ass.
Review:
This barrel kicks ass.
It is super smooth on the inside which puts less friction on the ball when it comes out of the barrel.
It is super Quiet if you are into that sort of thing. I MEAN QUIET.
This thing is amazing. I have shot all types of paint through it ranging from Big Bore to Small Bore, and yet to have a barrel break.
It is so light that it is impossible to notice it on your gun unless you see it.
It is accurate as hell. With all of the different brands of paint that I shot through it, I was putting shot on shot. At 40 Yards with Diablo Hellfire, I was getting a 5 inch Grouping with no wingers. At 40 Yards with Inferno, I was getting a 6 Inch Grouping with no wingers. At 40 Yards with RPS Big Ball, I got an 8 inch grouping. At 40 Yards with RPS Marballizers I had a 2 inch Grouping, NO LIE. At 40 Yards with RPS Slam Balls, I had a 5 inch Grouping. And the rest of the RPS were within a 4-8 inch Grouping.
Conclusion:
KICK ASS BARREL. If you have the money for one, and are thinking of a Boom Stick. Dont get it. Get A Stiffi. Like i said, It is Quiet, Accurate, Light as hell, and looks bad ass.
Weight.... It feels like a piece of bamboo. It weighs less than Ally McBeal
Weaknesses:
None.
Review:
I have used it on a Ranger pump, Black magic, and Various Timmies. It shoots well and is very quiet. with various bores available you can match it to your favorite available paint. It shoots as well as any of the top Dye and Lapco products with almost no weight. With Cocker, Imp, Angel, and Spyder threads they now cover most markers.
Conclusion:
If you are in need of a high performance single bore barrel this is as good as it gets.

Diablos, i love them, work GREAT with St!ffi's barrel.
Strengths:
Accuracy, Straight, WOW
Weaknesses:
None
Review:
Man, these St!ffi's sure are great, when they use the would st!ffi i thought about buying one, i am the type you need to try before buying, and man, WOW, these are GREAT barrels, i mean like you have to try one, no heat curving, carbon never curves when heated, and feather light, i mean you really need to see one, oh one more thing, no one likes chrom barrels with playing in any type of paintball game, cause they give your position away, these arent chrom'd, and ported! Everyone got to love ported barrels.
Conclusion:
Buy one, it is worth it, bought at 12", 14". 16". 0.681, .683, 0.685, 0.687, 0.689, 0.691, 0.693, 0.695 sizes
they come in diff. bore size's so any paint will work.I use Blaze mostly
Strengths:
The hands down lightest most accurate barrel in the sport.
Weaknesses:
None....I would pay even more than what they asked for it!
Review:
This barrel is the easy to clean and has the bore size right next to the treads. This is the lightest and most accurate barrel I have ever heard of or used.I cant wait till I get the entire set I have 3 of the 8 sizes now .This is the next level!
Conclusion:
This is the only barrel in the world you will ever need.It is perfection at its finest

Recommended Paintballs:
I reccomend using Blaze or Tournament Paint. The barrel itself is very thin which makes for accuracy.
Strengths:
Very fast and accurate and as light as a feather
Weaknesses:
Not any I've found but its all personal preference
Review:
I love this barrel. I have worked with many barrels and this is one of the most accurate ones. The best thing about it is the accuracy but next is the weight. I looked at it and said that is a piece of plastic. The guy said, "Pick it up and hold it." So I go to grab it thinking he was playing with me and that the barrel was heavy. It is light as a feather and it does not break. It took more beating than my other barrels in one month and showed no signs of wearing.
Conclusion:
I suggest that if you have an autococker or find this barrel for another gun than buy it. It may be high in price or not but it will be worth it in the end. Amazing barrel!
