I've got a couple aluminum barrels I'd like to have Freak bored that I do not want to reanodize (old CCI colors). Does this cause a problem since the inside of the bored out area is, in effect, raw?
Thanks...

Not necessarily no. -
With reasonable care not a big issue. Anodizing does harden the surface a little so helps with wear so given it is inside and you are using inserts it should be reasonably well protected. I keep an insert in my freak bored barrels that are raw just to be on the safe side. If you add a little paste wax to the raw aluminum the inserts slide in and out easily and the wax provides a little protection.

Same. And I use SS freak inserts. SS and aluminum tend toward galvanic corrosion, which I've seen once when I forgot to clean and dry the insert before putting it away for a year or more. It was a little seized, which I broke by twisting the insert and then managed to pull it out.Originally posted by Super Nova View PostPaintball Selection and Storage - How to make your niche paintball part idea.

The biggest issue with boring old phantom barrels in particular is that the oring groove leaves that section precariously thin.Comment
