    On Barrel kits

    Ok, so I know there have been threads galore on which kit is the best. Not trying to start another one of those.

    My question is: Who makes dust black kits? Trying to get all the stuff I need/want one for my 09Micro body.

    Dust kits I know of:
    J&J Edge
    Kaner
    Lucky?
    Lapco (set of 3 barrels)


    Who else?

    More importantly, who's got the cheapest kit? So far, it's looking like the J&J edge is the way to go.

          Haven't seen any Dust Freak kits. Those custom jobs, or are they easy and I'm blind?

          SpecOps kits? quick google foo failed, more info.

          Not a fan of CF

            Dye Ultralites come in dust.

            Or, a dust UL and bore it for freak inserts.

                    Both are available in gloss.

                    Older matchstick kits were also match-anno'd with some of hte LE annos, but none were dust, IIRC.

                        Another option, though kind of expensive, would be a Deadlywind carbon fiber barrel, running Freak inserts. Should look nice with a dust finish marker.

                          Wow your right. I could have sworn the matchsticks had dust as an option must of been a limited run or a custom job someone did

                            Probably would, but I don't like CF. Can't explain why, just dont.

                            Anybody know what bore a Proto Barrel is? More importantly, what is the control lenght of that barrel.

                            I like the look of it, and I'm thinking about getting one bored out for Freaks.

                            (there see!! I do listen you you behemoth. Just not until I'm told 5 times )
