    Disruptive Paintball barrels?

    In the gear I was given and have been giving away I found a bag tucked away in the gear bag, almost unseen. It has a kit with four backs and two fronts. The backs are all small bore, I don't have them in front of me but like 675-688 and the fronts appear to be 14 and 16".

    I did a quick search online and could only come up with this field location in Tucson:
    http://www.disruptivepaintball.com/

    The barrel has the same emblem on it but I don't see anything on their website about them. It appears to be a copy of the Shaft barrel series in profile and such, only slightly different. Anyone have any information on these?

    Edit- I found elsewhere it appears to be a "Deathtouch" barrel kit, if an older one than they sell now.

    The Deathtouch barrel is nice from what I have heard. A great bang for buck barrel too. Never used one personally, but always wondered.

      Disruptive Paintball is indeed a field/store in Tucson. Back when I lived there, it was *the* place to play.

      They started making barrels in 2010-2011, which I believe is now called the Deathtouch barrel. IIRC the threads are the same as Shaft barrels. The owner of DP has some pretty solid connections with PE. I had one for a while. It was a decent enough barrel, but I felt the internal bore was below par, and that the ano was very thin/scratched easy.

        The only comment I can make so far as these would pass as unused if it weren't for the bright pink paint caked in a few of them. I took the largest one outside and fired some several year old marbs through it and no breaks. I noted it was nice and quiet compared to 'some' barrels. Looks nice. Decent little find for a freebie. Sure I can find someone needing a barrel kit of small bore.

          Hmm, turns out I was wrong. I had a Balance barrel, not a Deathtouch. I might have to pick a Balance back up if they're compatible with Shaft barrels like I think they were.
