its a rifled armson barrel.
i used to have one for my BKO, shot good until you chopped then it flung balls everywhere.

meh, all barrels shoot the same quality, and rifiling them doesnt make a performance increase. well thats according to agd :headbang:. as long as you have a .689 barrel your gun will shoot fine, unless its a flatline.

Unless someone else made a rifled barrel the same as the Armson then thats defo a stealth. i used to have one on my A5. Nice barrel. ***** to clean without a swab tho.

Who said anything about the quality of how it shoots?

everyones talking about how it shoots nice, rifiling a paintball barrel is pointless, so is spending 100 on a kit when you can buy a 1 peice barrel and have the same effect as a freak

Troen, there IS a difference. A better bore match does make a subtle difference in accuracy (at least I think so), but not a very noticeable one unless you're shooting super nice paint with a consistent size. Bore matching also improves efficiency.

But yeah... I've got a Scepter but I'd be willing to switch over to a .690 Ultralite or something along those lines. And a Lapco Bigshot will shoot as nice as anything else.

Skife doesn't count as everyone? There was no barrel debate here or anything mentioned about rifling improving it any. I don't see the point your trying to debate?

yah, you're right... please disregard my reply, I don't want to start a debate on that topic here...

yeah, and it didn't shoot good often because my BKO was a Pile that would chop..... alot, the thing was a blender.

I tested this barrel VS a stock Eagleworks barrel and a freak system.
Velocity was adjusted after every barrel change and on avrage this barrel overshot the other barrels by 15ft .

I used to have a 10" armson... great barrel. I always would wonder how the heck you guys got the grooves like that....

Ancient chinese secret. ;)

It's pretty cool being able to make your own barrels tho.

I got a mega long (16" or 18"?) Stealth in a trade, despite any rifling debates, the thing shoots darts and looks snazzy on my Tac!
