Barrel adaptor

[JSC_Liason_neo]

I was thinking at the last torney, Can I get 1 barrell kit and use it with any marker, Yes I know every marker has different threads, Is there such a thing as barrel adaptors so i can use any barrel kit on any marker.

[Souse]

you would be able to get a machinist to make you one.......what sort of marker do you own as a lot of them take cocker threads....

Hello
Im getting a cyborg, and looking to get a Match stick kit, BUt I would also like to use the Kit on An Ion and Tippys 98 Rentals or A-5,

so no one makes them, Im going to get the local metal shop to make me one????

[Souse]

Cyborg is a Cocker thread.......you would need an adapter for the Ion, not sure what thread Tippmans.

Adaptors have a bit of a bad name, there are a bunch of ppl that make them but they all seem to have breakage issues (Balls that is)

make sure you get a spanner / hex machined on - being small it'd be hard to get off - especially once its cold from firing =)

So almost better to but get a different barrel bit for the markers, Most likly cost the same price to make the adaptor then to buy the barrell, Save the trouble

I once had an adaptor to make a Dye Stainless with a Spyder thread fit onto a Tippmann. They are available if you ring/shop around.
A 14" barrel is NOT good for a M98, trust me, after that little experiment I know:yes:

May i suggest buying a full freak kit with tip and then buying the rear back's for all your makers. Cocker , impulse and puke>> tipman.

This sounds like the best option, gettting freak backs for all markers and swap front

Freaks are good, but you can't beat a good one peice.

A freak will change the bore of the barrel, but only for about the first 4-5 inches, after that, it just goes back to normal and is effected by any other factor

[JSC_Liason_neo]

Is 18" the biggest front I can get?, because freaks kits only go up to 16"

[JSC_Liason_neo]

Does any one know if I can use as freak font on a macdev matchstick back?????

[Hideous]

No it uses a different thread... the Smartparts uses a much finer thread.

I have a 14" Stifi tip ( carbon fibre) from Premium PB (http://www.ppba.com.au/) and an All American 16" tip Actionpb (http://www.paintballshop.com.au/shop.php).

I am sure all the people you ask..like I did here and OS ..that you will not get more accurancy or range from an 18" > 16" seems to the go.

i got a dye ultralight 12"... its accurate as... any longer than 14 and youll have some serious issues with playing tight to a barricade i reckon... but i play up front so thats a little more critical for me

[JSC_Liason_neo]

I was thinking that i could buy one kit and use it for both woodsball and torny, the longer ones for woods 16" and the shorther 14" for torney, for different markers

[JSC_Liason_neo]

does anyone use Lapco, Adaptor, Thinking of getting , 1 with my spec ops order

[huxy]

only trouble with barrel adaptors is they cancel out any advantages of say a freak set as the adaptor can only be one size , in other words they will only work with the same size barrel/freak insert eg adaptoer 0.689 insert to fit balls 0.691 insert is to tight so you may get ball breakage

I was able to see one being uped at the last sappa, on a tippy, that was a spyder barrel with anadaptor for a tippy 98, that worked out fine

There wasnt much diff in range, from stock tippy to the 14",
