I contacted Site Mfg. recently regarding their Stif tips. They apparently make tips for most manufacturer barrel kits (ie; CP, SP, Dye) for $75. I expressed huge interest in getting these made for the A1 backs (great kit, why upgrade?). Someone contacted me back to let me know they will go into production if a minimum of 50 was ordered. Anyone interested?

What length(s) are we talking here? Plain CF or painted?

The representative that I received the email from did not get into specifics. I can only assume that you would be able to purchase any design or carbon weave you like. Once the threads are made, the tip is pretty much all the same from barrel to barrel. The painted ones are $99 on the website. The tips can be bought in 6, 8, or 10" lengths. The stock A1 back measures 6 inches I believe.

I don't think so. You would have to contact Site Mfg. directly to find out.
Farmboy
06-19-2007, 06:36 PM
nexeradg-I see, well just keep me on the list, as a "maybe" and if someone is fully in, they can fill my spot. I would like one, but the camo needs to be darker, like in their logo. Only red and black, no light greys.

Sorry if this is a stupid question but is it just the front, no backs?

Instead of using your stock tip, this replaces it. You still use the stock A1 backs, and can upgrade with the bore kit!

I know more people want in on this!!
SpeedFreak05
06-21-2007, 06:36 PM
why wouldnt you just keep the stock tip? the only thing i think it would change are aesthetics and barely any weight. right?
bigwilly01
06-21-2007, 08:34 PM
YES, I am in for a Red front. Same length as the stock 14" tip. Needs to match my red dust A1's. Let me know on the details when you get them.
SpeedFreak05
06-21-2007, 08:53 PM
well i guess when i sell my gun and get a dust blue velvet a1 i would buy a blue and black checkered tip (providing the checkers are the same size as carbon fiber). details please :-)

how long would we have to wait to get the tips from when you get the 50 people interested in getting them?
nexeradg
06-25-2007, 11:47 AM
I just contacted Bob from FMA. He might be interested in getting in on this group buy. As far as time frame from when we get the 50, it is 6 weeks after the order has been placed.
Should have more definite answers by tomorrow.

We actually do have plans to offer the tip for the A1 stock barrels. I expect that we’ll have them available in about 6 to 8 weeks. Please check our website for announcements.
Thanks for your interest in ST!FFI
Still waiting for the quote. I will try and call them on Monday and see if that helps.

I can wait... my bag's totally full of backs with the small bore kit and stock backs, there's no way I'm going to add more or an entire barrel for that matter. I just want to see if they'll mess around and come up with some more designs.

bob, with the current backs and the stif tip, what would be the new length on the barrel 14" or 16", was really looking forward on a 16". Also, are they available now?
The 8" tip will make a 14" barrel. We will add the other lengths upon customer requests. Tips start shipping this week.

I'll find out tomorrow when I test the gun out at a local shop. It is definitely lighter than the stock tip (don't ask by how much, just by feel) and its bore is well polished. I do wonder if it's as large as the stock 14" tip (.700) or if its bore is slightly smaller like the 16" tip (.695).

Howdy I know I haven't been a post machine, but I thought I could help out some. Did some measurements and found out that the A1 Tip weights 1.7 oz, and the Stiffi Tip weighs 1.6 oz, but is a little bit longer than the A1, here are some pics, of the Blue.

I also tested the sound however I do believe that the stiffi is a little more quiet, but not significantly, best I can describe is the A1 tip has a "THWACK THWACK" and the Stiffi has a "POP POP" more of a tone change than anything.

straight outta south jerz. complete with the captain morgan's private stock tank cover. lol...
nah, actually I am really impressed with the tip. a bit quieter than the stock tip, and a tad lighter. more or less for appearance, but I can see how much lighter a full stiffi or sly barrel would be over the stock. practically weightless, minus the threads.
