I've seen a few pictures on AO here of Extremes with Freak barrels..and i know that the Extreme is going to come with a matching AGD barrel..but let's face it...who's not going to throw that one in there bag and get a boomer or a freak or whatever...so what if the Extreme came with let's say a matching freak barrel with a .689 insert? ..how much would you conceivably pay for this added benefit to the Extreme?

I dont want a freak never liked them in the first place i see no point in having a 2 piece barrel.

I've got to agree with TransMan.
I'd stick with the stock barrel.

Freak all the way. The PMI Perfect stock barrel is decent, but it don't compare to a Freak.

$100 is about right for a matched Freak, as that's about what SP charges for them on an Impy.

If I were to spend the cash on an Extreme (that's what I'm asking Mommy for X-Mas, and I'm 22) I'm also going to spend the cash for a 68/4500 Flatline and a Freak. So if I can get the freak to match the Extreme, then YAY!

This is a bit off topic, but I would like to see AGD make there own line of barrels. I like having AGD research and AGD quality behind my marker.

Incidentally, the stock barrel for the RTP is very good. Once I threw on the extra O-ring it performs just as well as my Boomy or AA, just louder thats all.

if it were one of the new boomstick sets, then yes. But freaks have WAY too manny problems.

and what problems would those be liigod? (and btw..if you own the dye catalog you'll know they slam screw in barrel sets; talking about tool drift and tolerance issues..and then they come out with they're own..)

If I needed a matching barrel, I would send the front piece to AGD, asking them to do the same ano as on the marker :) .
It's easier, less expensive, and you can choose any barrel you want (or even do the same ano on different barrels).

i say yes, pay a lil extra and get something nicer.. i think that maybe agd should make a matchin Dye barrel and Matchin freak.. bc i hate the dye and love the freak, im sure everyone thinks diffrent.. but if the i think 2best barrels were and opp. im sure it would be a good idea

Well..of the 51 votes so far, it looks like a shade under 18% don't want a freak..so that's 82% that would like a freak with an extreme..so..Tom..you listening?

No but I would like AGD to make a barrel with inserts in SS. I use the freak but its not done well on the angel the back is bent and one of the inserts a green one always gets stuck. I also dont care for the windows in the back leaving those ugly colors to ruin the entire look of a gun.

What problems have you experienced with the freak? I have used it for almost a year now, and have yet to have one problem. Other than not being able to decide on the front.
