Kev - I contacted a guy who used to know Dale closely. It sounds like he closed up shop for good this time. I am still waiting back for further word though..

sorry...

re your project - I would look at having punisher do it - he is easily one of the most skilled airsmiths out there right now. Doc Nickle could do it too -but hes really back logged right now (er I think).

They went out of business?:(

That sucks. My BOA Snakebit shoots absolute darts with the right paint. Atleast I got one.

Well I think I got the last BOA barrel they made (long story :)) but I do have Dale's cell phone # .In any case they don't make barrels anymore or anything else for that matter . Have you considered getting a palmer barrel ?

Webby,
I've talked with Pun before, and he doesnt usually take as long as he has to reply to my emai....in fact, he hasnt yet since we talked. I guess I may just send him another.

Espo,
Lapco doesnt make barrels for the Vector. Someone told me BOA Does. If I get Pun's work, you can be assured its gunna be on a lapco

The brass barrels they made for mags was unreal. They would absolutely drill knots. Glad I still have one.
