    New Equation Barrel Pics

    I just got my equation barrel on monday afternoon. I know a lot of people on AO are interested in this barrel and i figured i would post some pics of it. I would have posted earlier but i broke my computer over the weekend and finally got it fixed tuesday

    no i have not shot the barrel yet because 3 of the insert are on back order ( .685, .687, and .689) which cover most common paints.

      the only differences i can think of are:

      1: can switch muzzle breaks
      2: inserts are made of teflon coated stainless steel not aluminum
      3: can just use adapter and muzzle for super short barrel

        Anyone take a caliper to these? I heard there were some issues with the freak inserts, and i've been real skeptical about the whole "insert" systems since.

          its just made better...

          the inserts are more accurate and durable (stainless inserts)

          how long is the insert? i want a multibore kit, but the inserts need to be like 5-6 inches long on my gun.

            now the real question..

            have you shot it?

            is it a loud or quite marker with the equation on it?

            is it accurate? is it worth the 99 price offered to the AO members?

            thanks

              One very important difference not mentioned it the base is milled to allow use on Right, Left AND CENTER feeds all in one base! I am considering trying one of these for that reason. I do not like the looks of that particular middle section that Blue has but that is the one stock. But there are two others on the equation site http://www.equationusa.com/ that are quite sexy and they are going to be offered in shorter length as well.

                  they are being sold for 99 dollars to AO members i believe. i also think it comes with 3 bore sizes of your choice.

                  i believe there is ordering info from a thread title something like HOT NEW BARRELS FOR YOUR NEW LEVEL 10 or something of the sort.

                  look around for it

                  i like the fact that you can change your base effortlessly (for different threaded guns) and really costumize your barrel (more to costumize!!).

                  before i spend my pretty penny, i wanna see if the are worth it.

                  anyone who has shot through it, plz post results

                    After real careful reading and checking I can not seem to determine why the middle and tip could not be specified in this kit jeff is offering unless its a promo pack. And its not evident on the site. But the site is outa date too. No mention of Mags available on it except in the forum of theirs. Going to give Jeff a ring on it and see.

                      also those inserts are not to be used with the 2 different systems, so only one kind of insert will work for your system if its pro or the other one

                      Cliff

                      it looks stupid, i mean that dump bubble extension as well as the dragon one?? wtf?

                      looks gimmiky if you ask me, and those muzzle breaks are also dumb, i mean.......

                      whatever floats your boat i guess

                        yea it probably would look better if they fattened up the middle but it would also add weight. roght now this thing is a feather compared to my stainless boomy and is just about as light as my ceramic.

                          Re: its just made better...

                          Onc again, has anyone calipered them? Considering the variance in SP bores compared to advertised, I want to know what kind of tolerances I'm going to be getting with these. I just won't buy into multiple bore systems with sizes so close that their tolerances allow seperate pieces to overlap in size. You can say they're built well, but that only takes us so far.

                          And I don't see where having stainless inserts will help any unless you have them rattling around in a box somewhere.

                            Well equation inserts are within .0002 (2 tenths)and stainless steel helps a lot when working with thin meterial
                            dont bent as easy and there Teflon coated giving it no resistance at all compared to an insert with no Teflon your losing over 30fps
