Review:
I got the Blue Mamba Switch Kit, when i got it the weight of it is SO light i cant even describ how light and strong it is. When i shoot it on my timmy its SO quite, and when i would shoot my boomy on my bros tx strom timmy (w/ the same settings as my timmy) its pretty loud w/ paint. I luv this kit cuz it saves me paint, cuz i can hit my target so much quicker and with a less volume of paint, ie. instead if uses 30-50 balls snap shootin it take me about 20 and less to shoot my target i luv that aspect of the kit.
Conclusion:
Buy this kit u will not be disappointed, its remarkably accurate and quite, i have seen a kid put 1 on a spyder and it was pretty quite, u couldnt tell it was a spyder till u saw it.

Review:
well my teamate bought a regular stiffi and i tried that out and was very impressed with it. I went to buy one and saw the switch kit for only 80 more ( i think) so i read a bunch of reviews and decided to try it. I got it a few days later and open it up. I like how it came with a carry case that fit everything in it nice and easy. then i put it on my mag and i didnt tighten the back to the barrel tight enough, so when i took the barrel off the back was tightly attached to my mag body. Now site thought ahead and put holes in the backs so you can stick an allen wrench in the hole to get it off, but the problem with my mag bdy was that the body covered the holes. so after a lot of dry firing it did come out. ( i have had the same thing happen ono my proto but the allen wrench fixed it) I took this barrrel to the field and the first thing was a few people were asking my what it was and howw much and did i like it. it is def. a crowd drawler. with this barrel on my proto it is incredibly quiet . Then on the field (drilling) I was walking my trigger and shooting at a two by four and was consistently hitting it from about 60 feet away. After that moment i was completly sold. Plus with how light it is the marker feels very light. I must say a greeat kit.
Conclusion:
Overall i am very happy with my purchase and have yet to use anything like it. In my oppion it was worth every penny. If you buy it you will not look back

Kaner System, CP Barrels, SP Barrels, Flatlines, Freak System
Marker Setup:
04 Mech Orracle with many mods.
Recommended Paintballs:
Almost any, if you like to shoot real small stuff you may need to buy the 2 smaller adapters from Stiffi, but for 90% of the paint you shoot it's fine.
Strengths:
Lightweight, Pretty Quiet, Accurate, Versatile, everything you may want in a barrel kit.
Weaknesses:
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Crap, it aint cheap.
Review:
Got the kit about two months ago, I may have put 4, maybe 5 cases through, mostly Draxxus Rec balls. Flawless performance. I could tell a difference between my 16in Stiffi and my 14 inch Kaner instantly. Less weight on the end of my gun gave me better balance and a more stable shooting platform. Got excited and short stroked my Orracle a few times, had a few breaks. Shot through the breaks in 2 or 3 shots, no need to squeegie. The carbon fiber looks cool, but didn't match my chrome too well. It still looks good; and peformance beats looks anyday. Sometimes I feel I have to baby it, even though I know the carbon fiber is tough, it is expensive. Oh and don't use a battle swab or any kind of cloth squeeie. I rock.
Conclusion:
If you got the $ it is worth it. Even if you have to sell your pets you won't be sorry...
It's a kit. Just get good quality fresh paint and let her rip.
Strengths:
Light, Quiet, easy to clean
Weaknesses:
Don't us a swab
Review:
Its a quality kit. Add paint and go. I don't care about the cool factor, i just like good qualitty gear. i mostly shoot GAP. I know my Switch with a .687 back will put paint on anything I want it to put paint on. Now will ramble so I have enough words.
Conclusion:
A good value.

Review:
Got the stiffi switch kit for my Dye LCD Matrix about a couple weeks ago, came in a nice carry case w/room for 3 barrels, and netting holding the sizers in place.
Light as a feather, its unbelivable this thing is so strong
Went to the field to test it out, matched some paint to the bore (ended up being a .689 match) and went to chrono room, very consistent barrel and quiet.
Then i went to the field, this thing is DEAD ON accurate, from 50 yards i was putting ball on top of ball, at 75 yards, maybe a 2 inch spread, NO BREAKS ALL DAY with the perfect match even, and i shot 1000 rounds that day. Ppl were tripping on how quiet my marker was "dang, thats unreal".
2nd day of play i went to another field, and used .687 sizer w/a perfect paint match, no breaks again all day, this time a case of paint, same accuracy, same results (lots of kills).
I think the reason it works so well, the sizers are only 1 inch long, so the ball doesnt really have much room to travel before it reaches the tapered bore of the barrel (so if the ball is dimpled it may not break if you understand me).
I almost want one to break now, to see if its true how quick this thing self cleans.
Conclusion:
GET IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Because its the best kit out there presently. I plan on buying a lapco barrel adapter so i can use this w/my A5 also, the snapshot will be gettting sold soon LOL

Light
Quiet
Looks
Accuracy
0 thermal expansion
Extra Sizers are cheap
Weaknesses:
Won’t fit on DM4s or DM5s.
Review:
This thing is remarkable when I first held it I thought it was made out of paper because it was so light. I was shooting in my back yard with some really bad paint in the cold. My stock freestyle barrel chopped 20-30 balls in the hopper. I then used the Stiffi and only chopped 2-3 (you may think this is bad but this paint was very, very poor, it was really swollen and had lots of dimples).
Even on my cocker I don't have a problem taking it on and off.
I only have the .689 size now and if I want more they are only $25
Conclusion:
I would recommend getting this unless you have a DM4 or DM5 because it the bore sizer won’t fit, you could just get a regular stiffi though. Other than that this barrel works flawlessly.

Freak: Not a very good kit. You get a lot of bore sizes for the price though.
Scepter: Probably the best barrel kit you can buy, but it's a little more expensive and it isn't as light.
Marker Setup:
Series 5
J2 frame
X-stream 90/45
FBM Stilleto drop
Apache
Stiffi Switch
Recommended Paintballs:
Nothing over .691, you can get up to 8(I think) different bores down to if you but CCM and SITE sizers. CCM aluminum/carbon fronts and sizers will work on this kit too.
This kit has .691, .689, .687, and .685 sizers stock, so most people wont need to buy any more of them.
No swabs allowed.
Sizers are tiny.
Not amazingly efficient.
Not cheap.
Review:
The main downside to this barrel is that the sizers are 1'' long. When you are using a cocker, this makes it so that you have to put a little allen wrench into one of the holes and un-jam the sizer every time you have to change them. It also might affect efficiency a little bit. You also can't use swabs with this barrel because they can cause the carbon fiber to unravel. I don't find this to be much of a weakness though because straight-shots and pull-throughs are much more effective squeegees anyway.
Other than that, this is one of the nicest kits I've used. Out of all the barrels I've seen, this one comes in second next to the Scepter. On my Series five, I was able to shoot a 9'' pattern at about 50-60 feet using ZAP Tork. Considering that it's cheap paint, that was some really good accuracy. With Marbs it will probably improve.
I don't mind heavy equipment too much, but the lighter my setup is, the better.
Some people claim that this barrel can shoot through breaks [there are always people who say "(insert barrel name here) is the best" but they are rarely correct]. I don't believe that a truly self-cleaning barrel will be produced any time in the near future, if ever, but this barrel does recover fairly well from breaks. You should still use a straight shot, but you aren't completely screwed if a ball breaks in one of these. I have an SP All-American and Progressive, both of which shoot fairly well, but they will NOT recover from a break.
Overall this is a great kit.
Conclusion:
It's pretty expensive, but you get what you pay for. Comes in a nice case too.

Weaknesses:
Have to use a pull squeege.
Review:
You have to use a pull squeege becuase the battle swab will leave its hairs in the carbon fiber. The barrel is the best barrel and I would recomend it over the Freak.The barrel is light, quiet, really accurate and durable. The interchangable bores make it easy for you so you can use any paint you want without having to worry about breaks in the barrel. And it is better than the freak becuase if you want 4 bore sizes for the freak they are like 20 dollars a piece wich is 80 dollars never mind the price of the barrel, why do that when you can get a light accurate quiet barrel that comes with 4 bore sizes that are easier to install than the freakfor a lower price, and it is a better barrel.
Conclusion:
Great barrel and would recomend it over any barel even the freak.
