I've got 2 front 16 ' one with alu back 0.688 and stainless steel back 0.690 !
And it 's so far the best barrel i ever have on my angel / IR3 !

Boun, I've been told the JT barrels are good too. Maybe I'm gonna get the black/black one when I got some money.
Is it better than the Boomstick though? or Freak?

4 me it's better than a boomstick and i hate the "freak" sound !
I have both Black and Stainless steel and it s rox a lot !
I play Back and 16' is a good deal !

I'll just play with my stock barrel at the beggining. How much does the JT barrels cost? (in France of course :clown:) do u know if Xgames PB sell them? or I'll have to ask Gerard.

umh by the way Boun, you're playing with Dealer Balls right? if so, is it some kind of contagion to use JT barrels? cuz Fabien told me to buy them too hehe.

I had a JT and the tip got scratched very easily. The inside didn't hold up too well either over time with the squeegee being run through. I think the alloy they use is too malleable (soft).

I keep having to agree with SPEED
Now I too used the JT barrel and the inside seemed to scratch eaisly...
I also noticed that looking in to the barrel from the front the two pieces do not seem to match up very well... that is from screwing them togeather and back apart again.. i think the threads begin to settle.. remember that one piece is steel(very hard) and the other is aluminum... bit softer/brittle... now don't use alot of force to screw them togeather... if you do remember the steel will always win.
Summary... out of the box it works great but after time it seems to good to crap...
BUT what doesn't...LOL:angry:

I have JT 14' stainless with the front black work like a charm it is true that the tip scatch easily but i dont find that for the interior is a bit heavy but the stainless is worth it. I've got couple of j&j their all right but my the JT is the best for me.
