The second one looks a lot like a stainless J&J my brother used to have. Not sure though...

top is definately a dye 12" SS (older version)

I've got one that looks just like that.

You might be able to make out a faint 'dye' logo on the side.

Agreed on the J and J whisper barrel, been looking for a replacement for a long time. PM me... I'll trade a boomstick for it.

the top one isnt a dye SS, dye always had there logo on it... its a 32 degrees rip off.. i think mabey called the terminator? or something to that extent

edit, they dont show it on there site anymore so its gotta be a older 32 degrees barrel, but im sure it is. my friend has one exactly like that. we hit things with it because its so freakin heavy, kinda like a nite stik

[b]Aliens[/i] is exactly right. I have a DYE stainless from the very first run back in '95. The muzzle brake is slightly different.

One of the PMI (later 32 Degrees) knockoffs is a good bet.

The middle is a J&J Whisper, and is probably nickeled or hardchromed brass. Back in the Whisper days, J&J didn't make very many stainless barrels.

beautiful, thanks so much!

I've never even heard of the whispers and I've been in paintball for about 7 years they have to be old :)

Yeah i got these in a trade and all I knew was that I was getting OLD barrels...they are all mint though :)

mass I'll PM you, I'm gonna put some paint through it on sunday and see how I like it, but maybe we can work something out. Peace,

Didnt the dyes also have holes behind the muzzle brake?

Yes, they did.

The top barrel is definitely a 32 Degrees SS (Dye knockoff).
Edit: they also made a lookalike and called it a "Bob Long Sig Series."

The second barrel is most likely an old hardchromed J&J. They changed porting patterns entirely too often, but I can't think of another manufacturer that made a barrel that looks like that. If Doc says it's a Whisper, it's a Whisper. :)

The third barrel, as stated, is indeed a stock MM barrel.
