Last barrel I'll ever need

[Shirow]

Hey:

I have to agree with Rudz on this one, although I don't know when we have disagreed. Palmer's makes FANTASTIC stuff and you can get exactly what you want. However, you probably won't be able to find exactly what you want used, because no one hardly sells their palmer equipment. You'll have to spend a bit more for just one barrel, but you won't be disappointed and can get exactly what you want.

I looked at the Palmers barrels, the few reviews I could find said they were very heavy and not that great - are they good/worth the money? It is pretty much exactly what I'm looking for.

bottom of the page. Thats mine, and I do really enjoy it. I just wish it was gloss black. If I could afford to feed my mag more, it makes a great compact unit with the Warp and a 45/45. Looks like this on my mag.

Looks cool, I kinda liked the look of the Widowmaker a little more though

I once kept a mag I was going to sell because I put a Lapco barrel on it.

True story.

They make good products.

I've owned a palmers. In fact it's still sitting in my gear drawer. They are great barrels, but no better than any other barrel I've used.

My only complaints are as follows:
1. If you get the black powder coating it can start to flake off which doesn't look pretty.
2. Heavy. Not a problem, but it is heavier than any other barrel so take that into account.
3. buy some brasso. As it gets used it is going to lose interior polish and sheen and you need to clean it once a year with brasso to keep it nice.

Other than that they are great. However, they are overhyped. There are dozens of single barrels which are just as good and require less maintenance.

Yeah? I think I'm pretty much down to Lapco and the Hammerhead.

Hammerhead looks cool but it also seems like a lot of work for a single barrel (fin+barrel+muzzle)

They look cool though.

I dont even carry a swab any more since I started using Lapco barrels.
They self clean better than any barrel I've seen.
I dont know how or why but they do.

I have had a Lapco Big Shot on my mag for years.
Love it so much once I got it I stopped looking for a barrel.
