Shootin' a CP 10" and an All American 14" stainless steel. Really like both of them, but I think I will end up with a Freak kit. They are very popular as are the Dye Boomsticks. Haven't really had any problems with my current barrels, though.

Factory 8". Shoots Marbs like darts, and also pumps out JT Elite like a rope.

my friend had a 32 degrees 14in carbon fiber. it was really accurateif you had the right paint for it. really bad if you had the wrong paint

how would i go about getting a factory 8inch, see i bought the blemished minimag body for my automag and the dye barrel seems to over turn whil in the body. when it locks the barrel is way over turned and no balls can pass through the whole in the barrel, i love my dye 10 ss, but was considering a new barrel since i got the minimag body, oh it is hopper right powerfeed.

If your barrel is turned the wrong way, you only need to make sure it is using the right slot. Most barrels have two slots milled in them. One for hopper right, and one for hopper left. Are you sure you are using the correct slot? Try the other one and see if it works.

i put the barrel in,and turned it,and it went into the hopper left position,and I have hopper right,and i tryed to shoot it,and i got all confused and stuff...

I haven't put any paint through my Minimag yet (hopefully in around 2 weeks, I'll be able to go to play), but I'll have a wide selection af barrels to use when I do. I'll let you know which one I decide upon afterwards.

I've had some good barrels, some bad barrels.

Dye 12" SS- Good with small bore paint but anything else, chops like crazy

SmartParts 12"Teardrop- Good all around barrel, quiet other than the chink sound with a mag(doesn't do it with other guns)weird

CP 14"- Best barrel I own, great with all paint shoots darts

stock barrel works fine for me a little loud but small, shoots med to large bore paint well (i usally use proball)

yeah i put it in the right slot. it lines up but then it over twist and locks, it is like the slot is to long or something. it lines up good but when you go to lock it is when it over turns.
