Review:
i ordered mine brand new from Ebay and it was around US$60.
at first when i received it, it was very light and had a really smooth internal finish on the insides of it. The outside design is quite ok i guess and barrel porting is sufficient to reduce the noise.
One really good thing i liked about this barrel tip is that when you have a break in the barrel, all u have to do is shoot about 3-4 balls out and it just shoots through. No squeegie required.
but i'm not completely satisfied with it coz just after about 2 months plus its internal wear is starting to come off and i can see a rough surface on the insides of the barrel. Now whenever i shoot paint it gets caught in the rough surface of the barrel and breaks every 10 or so shots. I dont really know why this happened but i e-mailed them and they've agreed to fix or send me a new stiffi-tip.
lets see how that one holds up in the future
Conclusion:
gonna give this a 5 for breaking so easily but when it worked it worked wonders
accuracy
weight
quiet
looks(if your into carbon fiber)
Weaknesses:
weak tip
Review:
Got the 6" tip. Shoots great on my shocker. Very light! Maybe a little more accurate than my sp tips. A little quieter also. Now the down side. One hit on the end of my barrell from about 30 feet is all it took to crack it. Crack runs from a port to the end. Sent back to Site, and they replaced no questions asked. With a warranty like that, I say you cant go wrong with this tip.
Conclusion:
Try it if you want to lose some weight off your marker

Review:
I have run many different paints through it, swabs, squeegees, dirt, etc. and it keeps
hanging in there. It is just as or more accurate than the Smart Parts Fronts and a lot lighter. It is a lot tougher than you may be led to believe. If it wasn't so damn expensive than it would have a 10 for sure. I will be soon upgrading to the Switch Kit to get rid of the heavy cumbersome Freak Back... Hope that is as good as their Front turned out.
Conclusion:
Great product if you want to spend a couple extra dineros...
