HK Joins the PWR barrel Club

HK now has a PWR barrel and inserts too. Interesting take and looks like it would be a pain to clean? But gives
lots of options for colour combos.

Damn, I didn't even pay that for my carbon fiber barrel with a full kit of 8" inserts.

Yo man you won't be cool unless you shoot our walmart grade paint through our $300 fancy tube, bro!!

What happened to paintball?

Why are we leaning into the phoney luxury and limited drop crap?

What's next blind bagged guns called Lashootyous?

Once again, more insert bores than will ever be needed. Who's out here buying a full bore kit in 2026?

But the site design is interesting. The barrel falls & disassembles when scrolling down (reverses when scrolling up). On the fence about the weird liquid pool that follows the cursor around, though.

Barrels are money makers in this industry so you can't be surprised when everyone hops on board. This is nothing new.

One of the few ways one can customized their marker anymore, really.

I'm a little too confident that I could bend or crunch that barrel back by hand too

I actually used my largest bore. 695 last time I went and played at an indoor field

I like having all the bases covered

So bore! Much huge!

There are two wolves inside of you: one of them wants a rare, custom milled anodized autococker/phantom that has no functional upgrades (but has a 1 yr technicians warranty).

The other wants this $300 barrel to take pictures with.

They’re both ghey.

welcome to the forum

I could understand owning a wider selection of inserts if you played at various venues back in the day when we had widespread quality paint. Then again, back then the only Freak inserts I used ranged from 0.687 to 0.691 at most. I could also understand why you'd want to bore match your paint when it is consistent.

Nowadays I just slap something around 0.685 and just overbore. Every time I use a ball sizer I get up to +/-0.003 variance on the paint I'm handed. I've given up on bore matching.

That being said, nice to see HK adopting the PWR standard.

Also I'm surprised HK isn't calling it the white PWR system

[Cdn_Cuda]

That will be a special edition barrel no doubt...

[TwonTamal]

Very original idea and totally not copied at all....

[Jsc5150]

>doesn’t even have a 675 insert

but they made sure to make like two over 690

[RPP]

HK out here making copies of copies of copies.... what do you expect thought?
