Besides the freak kit, I guess all of the following are candidates:

CP 2-piece barrel kit ( http://www.customproducts-az.com/kits.html )

There's some CP Kit.
J&J Edge Kit
Equation Kit
SP Freak
Evil Pipe
I think Lapco has one too now, but I'm not sure.

NM, Darklord beat me 10x as good.

[warpfeedmod]

Not mine but just spotted this Complete Mag freak Kit
on ebay.

check it out

That's a good deal for the complete set.

[Bront]

www.paintballgear.com has several barrel sets, including the Evil Pipe Bomb. However the Pipe is not made in mag yet (Boo, Hiss).

www.blackfootpaintball.com can usually get just about anything, and they have some great deals on the equation barrels.

[paintslinger]

nice guys nice this is gonna be for my imp that im getting fyi.

[darklord]

Someone should make this thread classic so people will know what's out there in terms of barrel sets.

[paintslinger]

wow these things are more expensive than i thought. which ones do u guys think is the best buy?

[darklord]

It really depends on what you want. If you want a versatile barrel kit with multiple inserts like the Freak, then you could go with the freak or the equation USA set... but if you're only shooting a small variety, go with the CP kit or the J&J edge. If you can afford it, you could get a boomstick with a few different backs. If you don't want to deal with inserts/front and back pieces, then you could always go with the Aradus or the Xcalibur Slayer. Out of all the kits I'd say the Equation set is the most customizable, but that is just me. Pick one that fits your budget and looks good to you!

Darklord, nice coverage, very thorough!! My favorite is by far the Equation set!! I have shot many barrels over the past 10 years, and none has outperformed it yet!! From accuracy, consistency, to the ability to shoot through broken paint with ease!! I was personaly very disapointed with the Freak set, my old school crown point could outshoot it, and if by chance you happened to break paint in it, you can forget about the whole thing untill you took it apart and cleaned it!! Hope this helps!!

[paintslinger]

ok i think im gonna go with the multiswitch starter equation set. i get 3 inserts(in bores of my choice) and my choice of extensions and muzzles. now i dont know what to choose . anybody got some photochoped pics of different barrel combos? or on gun pics? i think im gonna go with the scope+the ek47 tip. thanks also what bores should i go with im thinking .685 .689 .691 or.685 .689 .693 . thanks

[darklord]

Like I said earlier, go with what you think looks the best. That's the beauty of the Equation set, it's completely customizable to how you want it to look (within reason...). As for bore sizes, it depends on what you're shooting. If you only use .689 size paint, I'd go with that first option you gave (.685, .689, .691), since it would be flexible with various weather types. You don't necessarily have to get the insert type back, you could get one of their bored backs. I think it's $8 extra for the insert back for a mag, but I guess if it's going on your Impy it won't matter...

Well, I would hope that more ppl would choose the Evil Pipe Barrel, but like they mentioned, not for Mags yet. They look really sweet with the fades, 5 durable backs (rather than inserts) and are decently priced.
