Lapco or J&J will get you the same results for a lot less.


Than again, I've given you advice on barrels already......

Its a polished tube of aluminum, brass or steel. Stock barrels on all of my guns work fine, unless the paint doesnt fit.

I say go with the Lapco I have only heard great things about them the Bigshot has a slightly larger bore than the AutoSpirit they both come in aluminum and stainless the stainless is heaver and more expensive but is more durable and is a shinny polished stainless. I like the concept of the freak but I think it is a little overpriced for the complete set. The stock barrels that are being made on most guns today are 100 times better than stock barrels from years ago. If there is a barrel that you like and you know someone that has one see if you can try it out to see how it feels for you.

I suggest you read some of this stuff, before you go and spend money.

This is the guy who brought regulators and HPA to paintball, and mad some of the first semi-auto guns in the tourney scene.
