Titanium Barrels and XL Insert

[Bigtuana]

I had these on hold for a couple members that never bit the bullet back when I originally sold these a few years ago.

Barrels: 150 shipped each
Autococker threaded
12.5 inches long
.680 bore

Insert: Not sure... give me an offer or buy both barrels and I'll throw it in
Freak XL compatible
.681 bore
fits pretty tight in some barrels

[RuleOfSines]

Oh sweet mercy those are pretty.

[latches109]

Pm insert

[scottieb]

Don't these weigh about the same as a slice of bread?

[BlindFaith429]

With or without the crust? Lol

[Bigtuana]

They equate to 2.25 slices of typical white bread a piece

[WORR13]

these are nice, and well made. i got one from original sale. so light too -possibly weigh less than a slice of bread

[fsj1991]

pmed yeah!

[superman]

i wish these were 14 inches and ported!!!

[latches109]

and honed so they shoot sparks! there is a video somewhere of the dye Ti barrels doing this

[Jonnydread]

They do shoot sparks! Mine does at least. They shoot well, but holy shit they are loud. They're almost TOO light for me, which is a rarity.

[Stilgar]

Ok. Interested. PM inbound

[Bigtuana]

All spoken for. Thanks, gentlemen!

[Relief]

Can these be sent back for porting?

[Bigtuana]

Negatory, ghost rider. Titanium isn’t worth trying to drill holes into. However, I’m considering making a run of phantom threaded barrels and would have some ported aluminum tips that I would offer to those with barrels from the original run.

[Relief]

Oooo I’m very interested in one of them!!!

[flyweightnate]

Phan-tom! Phan-tom!

[BlindFaith429]

And what about us poor souls who weren't around when the original run went out?

[Bigtuana]

Good question. What thread(s) are you looking for?

[BlindFaith429]

The titanium phantom barrel you mentioned above.

Would it be freak bored? Or fixed bore and go with the ASP detents?

[Bigtuana]

No freak bore on these bad boys since they are .005” thicker than a freak insert.
I can make freak inserts but there’s been a lot less interest for those as opposed to a 12.5” long bore that get’s the “knuckleball effect” that I mention in this video Dan Bacci made about a WALZ build that used seamless stainless tube that wasn’t honed.

I also think every phantom would benefit from ASP detents regardless of barrel choice since it is a bore drop. You never know when you’re going to have .675 paint

Bigtuana woah woah, you can’t just throw this out there:
“Negatory, ghost rider. Titanium isn’t worth trying to drill holes into. However, I’m considering making a run of phantom threaded barrels and would have some ported aluminum tips that I would offer to those with barrels from the original run.”
you make that phantom run and I am good for two of them.

[Bigtuana]

Oh, I can’t throw it out there like that? How about I set it down gently: “mayhap, by the power of WALZ almighty, there will be an unquantifiable possibility that there will be petite production of paintball barrels of a particular alloy, thread, and bore size that will please the likes of those that meander MCB in possession of a phantom or five in addition to those with ample investment into a previously purchased titanium paintball acceleration tube that prefer porting.”

Lol, touché. I can appreciate a thesaurus thrashing sarcastic laden riposte.
