Anybody heard of them before? Looks like they have some pretty slick barrels out. Take a look:

Yeah, I clicked the banner on PBN too. They do look very very sharp, and you have to love carbon fiber. As for the whole science behind their claims, such as the tapered barrel, I have no clue.
Man, that gray to red, to carbon fiber fade is stunning. -
i might have to get one of thoes..."Ah yes, I have one of the 32*rebels that I always take to big scenario games. It keeps the truck from rolling if I have to park on a hill." - automikeyComment

I checked that out earlier after seeing the banner ad at PBN. I like their tech page, with such gems as:
"TAPERED bore allows paintballs to 'float' in barrel undisturbed for reduced drag and improved accuracy. Traditional stepped bores create excess turbulence due to sudden pressure changes."
and
"Nano Vapor Deposition (NVD) in the bore allows SLY to engineer the surface at the molecular level to reduce drag"
Uh huh.
They've figured out how to manipulate carbon fiber at the molecular level, yet somehow they can afford to sell this barrel for only $90. Whatever.
For more goodness from their website, check out the downloads link. You can get an online sticker sheet as a PDF.
Think about it.

looks to me like $30 per back, or $90 per set of 4, and $90 for the front.Originally posted by rudzis it 90 buxx for thr fronts and 90 for the backs??? or 90 a set..they are sold seperately so i think its 180, a set???
Anyone got the inside scoop on these? any good? I'd like to hear some reviews. I want to know how it compares to a stiffi.you know you play this game too much when the neighbors stop fixing their broken windows...

It's actually kinda of interesting that they'd go a gradual step route rather than a definate step for their bore. Similarly their "NVD" is most likely just their fancy way of saying, "We use some flavor of plasma deopsition coating on our barrels" which is an entirely possible process.
I'd never buy one, but they do look kinda nice.
