Glass Barrels...

[SuiciDal Sn Y p ER]

back in my n00bish days i always wanted a see through barrel. i was wondering...

is it a smart idea to make a glass barrel ot plastic barrel? that would look pretty sweet in my opinion.

[FragTek]

It could be done with some high grade plexi-glass to meet durability standards.

but who would make it?

[FragTek]

I dont know, you could try and market the idea to the maker of the Stiffi barrels since they are specializing in non-metal barrels.

umm, anyone heard of system x around here. they already make polycarbonate barrels, and look pretty cool, but i heard they suck at accuracy. but i guess you could try an make one yourself, and maybe this time, they would shoot strait.

i kno before some where i have seen a barrel with clear mods soo i knows its been done just couldnt tell you who

i saw one on paintball2xtremes magazine back in 2001. i'm not sure if that was a real thing or just a picture. but i think it was an ad for PMI.

and i can't find the system x barrel anywhere. not even on their official website!

I believe there was one called the ramrod, but also my friends pirahna came with a clear plastic barrel.

if a talon can shoot accurately with a plastic barrel then any gun can

[barberjohn]

yea, system x may not make them anymore, bc i havent seen them in an add in ages. ahh, here they are http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/1074/, and now i do remember, they were half aluminum and half clear, but i still seem to remember a one piece that was all polycarbonate, oh well. oh, and xtreme enterprises also makes color angel breeches and volumizers.

that's not clear clear. i want a 1 piece clear plastic/glass barrel.

only clear barrel i have ever seen

[FragTek]

Might wanna recheck that link... its a review of a Pirhana.

The Ramrod is the only barrel that I have ever seen thats see-through to some extent. I am not sure if they still make them any more, but the looked like an awesome concept the first time I saw an add for one in a magazine.

PMI made a clear polycarbonate (plexiglass) barrel on their Piranha EXT's

and i think it was xtreme enterprises that made a barrel kit that had clear and colored polycarbonate tips to it



and i'm still looking for a ramrod... any threads... it's gonna become a freak front

hmm i wonder if theres ever been teflon barrels, or wood barrels, or lead barrels
