The Stiffi is one of the two best barrels i have ever owned. It is the lightest by far. Its also very quiet. I highly recomend one. The other barrel i highly recomend is the Lucky 15.

It is the shiz. Period. I use no other barrels, simply because my stiffi barrel shoots perfect with pretty much all the paint I shoot. It's weight (56g) and strength are great too (I stomped on my barrel, and it didn't even flex)

Good Deal!

I have one and it's rather un-inspiring if you ask me. Its 12" long and weighs a whoppin' 1.8 oz. (to give you an idea I have a CP 12" One Piece that weighs 4.8 oz.) and it just sorta makes it feel like there's nothing on the nose of your gun. Personally I don't like the feel of them and I'm glad the one I have was free. That's pretty much where the "I don't really like it" stuff ends. As far as everything else about the barrel, its actually a pretty good barrel and if you really want an uber light barrel to dangle off the end of your what ever, then by all means, buy one, I don't think you'll be disapointed.

My bias against this barrel stems from a love of Stainless Steel and a firm beliefe that CF should never be used as a barrel material.

i love my switch kit.

last time i played, i broke a ball. i didn't realize it until after the game. it shoots clean really fast and it's easy to match paint sizes.

I run a Switch Kit(Stiffi carbon fiber and CCM milled parts) on my cocker. Love it. Great barrel system.

I have always wanted a stiffi just to see how they were. I like the whole carbon fiber idea.

It's made by Warped Sportz if I'm not mistaken.

Never seem to have a problem with fitment of paint, since I shoot mainly mid grade paint like blaze or the like. Lately I've shot this cheap stuff my local store carries called pink slime or whatever. Cheapest paint, but sizes great!

I use the stiffi tip on the dye ultralite backs. I like this kit better than the stiffi switch, but it's hard to find more than 3 dye backs that are different bores. This keeps your barrel really light, and i like how it looks, especially since I may be getting the backs annoed soon. You can't ann the stiffi, but you shouldn't want to b/c it looks so pimp and shoots unbelievably better than other barrels.

If you get a stiffi, just make sure to not use cloth squeegees, they tear the inside apart, and scratch it. Use rubber ones, no battle swabs!!
