    I was sad

    To learn tonight that the crown point barrels are no more. THey had them a little over a year ago, and my friend got me an 8 inch one for my birthday. I was gonna go for an 11 inch one but now i don't have the chance. Oh well, i'm just wondering, were they not selling enough and that's why they were discontinued?

    Well....I hate to put you down even more....but they aren't that great. I find the stock rt/emag twist lock barrels (the cone shaped ones with polished tip) are waayyy better.

      Ops, back on topic. What's so good about crown points though? Never used one just curious though. Aren't they stock barrels though?

          Well they ting, have one barrel id so they're accurate, and they look cool. I like them. Anyway, i have an rt barrel (my classic rt is what i use) but the 8 inch cp is a lot easier to play tighter with.

              Yeah, it annoys the hell out of my friends. I'm just wondering, did you go to the big game in the spring with a z-grip? I think that was you(he told me his screenname but i'm pretty sure i forgot it). Anyway, if it was, thanks, because that was the first time i got to hold a z-grip.

                I kept my 13 inch Crown Point barrel over my Boomstick. They are just too agg to say that aren't any good.

                    Be careful with them though. The tips were so thin that I had a friend see a guy get his hand speared by one in a bunker collision. The guy was screaming "CHECK IT! CHECK IT!" to the magger while his hand was squirting blood

                      Hey hows it going!

                      They are stock barrels, you could take your pick back inthe day when you bought a new gun. They are accurate within a ody width, but any precision shot forget it.

                        I'm actually very precise with my 8 inch. I've gotten people out with one hit on long shots with it, it's no less accurate than a normal barrel.

                              No way man, that thing is too nice, i can play so tight with it. The thing i hate is it's not at all efficient though, i mean it's got about 2-3 inches of barrel that's not being used (the breech and then the actual point) so my psi drops after around 3 games, depending on how i shoot.

                              Hmudd, i would if my gun wasn't black, but if it was silver or red or something i definitely would.
