Wadjapay for your centerfeed barrel?

Thank you for the compliments of my work! I actually had this thread in the main forum and one of the mods moved it here. I tried to change the title to garner some more interest but so far it has not worked. I probably should start a new thread.

Using non-centerfeed barrels on centerfeed bodies is possible, but annoying. Before I sold my powerfeed Boomie and other barrels, I tried then on my CF E-Mag, and it worked. Kind of.

It was very hard to insert the barrel, and slight misalignments caused by shifting caused ball hangs and consequent breaks. It was too annoying, so I sold all of those barrels.

If these conversions are good quality, then they should be worth it, considering the price and lack of availability of CF barrels. In addition, you can keep barrels you already have if upgrading guns.

I have had my RT for 4 years and I have about 11 different barrels including a freak system(I like barrels :)) When I bought my centerfeed Emag there was no way I was going to ditch all of my barrels. Hell I am a Machinist and I knew I could make them work. That is what I have done here. With the hole that I mill in the barrel slot the twist lock works just like it would in a regular left or right feed. The twist lock locks into the milled hole and holds it there just like any other barrel. My modification does work. All I need is some guys to have some faith and let me modify their barrels :)

DYE Does custom mill all of their line of barels for centerfeed. a boomie is a little more, not much...

I have seen centerfeed freaks for the same $199 as the rest, but they are not as common. I prefer my freak, but I have taken the time to modify a few of my PF barrels and they work fine. just a couple minutes of time and viola :oof:: centerfeed JJ, AA, and DYE boomie

It is not difficult to locate and mill the hole if you have the equipment and know what you are doing. It is VERY easy however to destroy the barrel if you are careless and do not know what you are doing. I am glad that DYE offers their barrels in centerfeed. I emailed them to get prices but they never did reply to me. Smart Parts replied to me but they told me that they only did the aluminum Freak backs in centerfeed. That made no cense to me. I do not like aluminum mag barrels because the twist lock slots ware out over time. I prefer stainless steel mag barrels. The biggest advantage of my service is that you do not need to sell your current barrels and buy new ones. You rarely get the true value of your barrel when you sell it. My way will save guys a lot of money.
