Looking at a new barrel kit. What would you guys go with? The 2 or 3 piece sanchez barrel kit for the 05 speed? On fix my angel they only carry the 2 piece. What is the best setup? Right now I have a stiffi .691 12in. Need advice for my new barrel. thanks for the help. :notsure: :stooges:

I'd recommend you determine what aspects of the barrel you desire then prioritize them, i.e.:
1.) Performance (probably no difference between the two sets)
2.) Ease of maintenance (2 pc. = 2 O-rings, 3 pc. = 3 O-rings between segments)
3.) Quantity of back sizes available and differences/ranges between sizes for each set.
4.) Colors available
5.) Convenience: of transporting, storing, changing, etc.
6.) Durability (same as No. 1)
7.) Cost
The above are suggested factors and in suggested order of priority, you arrange/develop what applies to you....
Bottom line is the SM's are excellent barrels and compare favorably with other offerings in regards to cost, but more importantly...their value for your dollars is right up there among those considered the 'best'. Just because SM doesn't have a mega budget advertising fund doesn't mean their product is bad...just not well advertised.
Hint: Not well advertised does not equate to 'not well known or regarded'....
We carry both, I am just out of stock on the three piece kits. We are waiting for our custom kits to arrive and they should be here after May 1st

Thanks BOB, I will be placing an order with You guys very soon. In your opinion what is going to be the best kit? Is that new custom kit your talking about going to be good. My only concern is accuracy. I want a tac driver. Thanks for input. :bigok: :bigok: :notsure:

When you get it let me know how it shoots. I might have mine by then though. :notsure: :patriot:

different bore sizes, the regular orbium kit has some wierd bore sizes, this one will have bore sizes that r more "popular" with the paint companies... And i think it will have different length tips than the regular orbium kit too, im not quite sure on that one

Thanks for the reply, Hmm I think I might wait for that kit to come out. Is it going to be the 2 or 3 piece kit? I think Bob said like May is when it will be out. Thanks for your input much appreciated Bro. :cheers:
