      For me the Freak kit is the best one since it has allot of diferent bores and if u get another gun with diferent threads u just have to buy a new freak back.

        Well that link takes me to the kit for $129.95 not $99.... Link here for that one

        ...but however they are giving free shipping 2 day too! And that kit has three tips. If you wanted that then thats a plus but if not then its just more stuff to haul around. And the J&J only has one tip but a better case in a hard shell with egg crate foam lining. Where as the Kaner is just sort of a plastic organizer pop in thing. Both of those kits feature similar things. Two piece set ups with four control bores. So its a trade off. Paintball Discounters had the J&J so check them for that price.

        Link to J&J edge from PBD here. Be sure to note the free UPS ground shipping option in check out. Any order over $100 and this would qualify.


        All of the insert systems give you the ability to change backs by the way. The Scepter is one of them. And its a bit better made than that Freak is. I have owned two Freaks in the past and liked them very well. But do not own them any more and use the Scepter. Love it. But I also have a J&J Edge kit as well.

            I would say get an Equation (I'm biased.. all I shoot :-P)

            If you REALLY want an Equation... I'm selling a really nice one for $120 shipped...

              regarding the kaner barrel kit. i have one and it's great. i was lucky enough to order it when paintball gateway was selling them for $99. the barrels are light and shoot rather well. my only complaint, and this has been mentioned before, is the "case" they come in. it is rather cheap but it does the job so i'm not complaining too much.

                      Get a .689. You realize im in ARKANSAS right? Not to cool here. Trust me, I think that if a person says they can tell a difference, they are lying, or the other is to small/big to the extreme.

                        They didn't mean too. Its what they remembered paying or indeed was what they paid on sale or something. I just always check em out myself. So while I was doing that I just went ahead and copied and pasted the links for ya is all. No problem and your welcome. Good luck with your choice. Any of them are fine barrels.

                            Buy a CP 2 piece and get some backs over time. I ordered mine straight from CP for $60 and still had enough money to get a diff length tip and another bore. On top of being inexpensive, they are excellent barrels as well.

                              cphilip,

                              I thought the same thing as you about the price of the Scepter kit at topchoice but if you actually put it in your cart you are only charged $115 plus shipping. It must be on sale.
