I doubt anyone has one in australia as they are fairly new. I do know that the NPPL Pro team Miami Rage will be Shooting them this year but I am unsure if they did last year. Best to check pbnation or pbreview for reviews on them. They are pretty expensive though from what i remember as I had a look at one a little while back. Oh and Rage are getting there own Red cammo version which will be released to public.

captin. I needed a new barrel for the new marker and this should suit the new maker sweetly and it looks pretty bling as well. As for when i will slow down i guess that will be when i dont have any new markers.

Sniper. I just ordered it off of there website. Getting it sent through fedex and have a b709a here on stand by if customs asks for it.

I got some more pics but dont have time to upload them this morning so i will try and get em up tonight.

The barrell is so so so light even with the back on. I have read a few reviews saying that they where a little unhappy about the finish but it looks fine to me.

Any way i will give more info and pics tonight.

That looks great! Just checked out their site and the all black looks good also. Jonkers did you end up needing the b709a or not? Also freight wise what kind of ballpark figure are we looking at?

it is more like +5 cause it glows in the dark :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

it ended up being around $65 aus dollars for freight. in the end the b709a was not asked for but if you where thinking of getting one i would suggest you have it there just in case it was asked for.

well since you all asked nice.

The thing is awsome. As BNO said i pretty much rained on top of a few ppl and it was nice. I didnt go out a test accuracy between it and the freak kit i have but it semmed even if not a step or 2 in front.

There was a couple of blemishes in the clear coate of the carbon but nothing to really complain about.

I was using it on a mates defiant 2 as i dont have a cocker threaded marker yet!!!!!!! ( another reason why not beeing able to give a good accuracy report.) but the whole barrel including the backs is so so so so stupidly light.

I had a break or 2 in the afternoon. Dont think it was due to the barell but it shoot its self clear with in a few shoots. Any down fall i found it the finish was easily made up with how light it was how trick it looked and how well it seemed to perform.

Hopefully should have another decent go this weekend so i will try to compair it to another barrel for accuracy and such but as the weather is bad at the moment only time will tell.


ps if spelling is bad sorry i had a couple of beers :lol: :lol: :lol:
