ULE Minimag Project

Super sweet. I want 1, but not cheap. Looks Super Sweet...

Exactly.

You have two hands , you need another gun.

I ran out of hands a long time ago.

[ghost flanker]

I think I just might...eventually. Those ULE bodies aren't cheap. In the meantime, this shooter will stay as it is.

This looks really good.

The obvious solution here is to leave this one black and build another to your original plan.

Wow that really is sexy. I have a body I planned in anodizing white but black really looks good with that xvalve

I'm in a horrible dilemma and it is all Xmagterror's fault. From him, I bought what I thought was a raw ULE minimag body that I intended on anodizing in SS matte gray, but received one in black instead. Just came in the mail today. And here is the result;



Dammit! That color looks so good with the rest of the gun. Frigging black beauty. Xmagterror, you ruined everything! I had a very specific, well thought out plan in mind, but now I'm thinking of possibly keeping it black. No, gray. Can't decide! I want both! Ahhh! Worst first world problem EVER!

I ended up finding an even more suitable stainless barrel than the J&J on Bacci - got it in today. Lots of cool, weird stuff on that site. Thanks again for the tip, Dude. Still may send a real Minimag barrel to get milled to maintain the whole ULE theme. Xmagterror was the one I bought the ULE body from so I'll most likely go back to him for that. I'll be sure to check out Ano-tech, as well. Thanks, guys.

maybe a j&j ceramic, dye boomstick or lapco bigshot? a palmers brass barrel would look the part; 10" non-vented in dust nickel plating...it would just cost you about $120.

hmm...or, you can look for an old j & j hard chrome brass barrel. that would be ok i think...bacci has one.

Hey, that stainless J&J on Bacci fits the bill pretty darn close. Nice work. Not quite aluminum, but beggars can't be choosers It's by far the most ideal barrel I've yet seen for my project. I may still try to get an aluminum barrel MM/freak-milled in the future, but I'll be snagging that J&J for the time being. Thanks, dude.

I would think just about any cheap straight AC threaded barrel would work. If all else fails, just buy one and cut it. Get it freak bored and you're in business. For something as simple as media blasting it and anodizing it, contact Ronin paintball. He is starting up and may work with you.

Finding an aluminum one-piece AC threaded barrel with a straight, plain outer surface like that of a MM barrel has been surprisingly difficult. The barrels I have found look more like these...


They're all weirdly contoured, wavy, curvy, with varying widths, particularly along the back half. The only straight AC barrels I've seen are carbon fiber. I've primarily searched on eBay, though. If you know of any place I can find what I'm looking for, I'd greatly appreciate it.

I may have a barrel for you, ill PM you picks. I picked it up with the similar intention and then my build went a different direction.
