cool

[YimSta007]

will the quest come with all four bores?

[aceofspades05]

how much would it be to purchase the remaining backs if you already own a quest and its first back/tip?

[haser]

will the quest come with all four bores?

There will be an option to purchase the full kit with the gun for an additional fee. I'm not sure how much more though.

Well you be putting out other threads for people who don't have the FEP Quest yet and don't plan on buying it for a little while and would like one of the best barrels around for there non-quest marker?

[papaintballer15]

.696! what.... i think there should have been .685, .687, .690 and then .693.. but thats just my 2 cents :P

Is there going to be different color choices, like more then just black backs?

[meatloaf]

Hey folks, whenever i get these pics i will upload them. I just snapped some of the barrel kit this afternoon, be up in a bit.
pat.

[aceofspades05]

meatloaf what about those of us who have a back and a tip already since we purchased a quest? do we really have to buy a full kit?

[Maverick_1369]

nah dude, there is like no reason to ever shoot a .685 or a .687

.690, .93 and a .96 thats an awesome set right there

[papaintballer15]

theres small bore paint that .685 would come in handy for. Look at UL's they have like 3 bores, one small, 1 medium and 1 large.

.696 is pointless, thats huge. .693 is big for most paint and thats about the largest u need.

When i had my 2 freaks i used .687 and .691 the most.

[Maverick_1369]

Even then, there is no need to match paint. Overbore, ask around with the pros see how many of them shoot less than a .693. Ive heard of pros using up to a .70 barrel

[papaintballer15]

with open bolt guns i think .691 is about all u need really. Kits are good for closed bolt so u dont get ball roll outs. Paint to bore matching i personally think is over rated, but its still nice to have a kit. .687 .689 .691 are my 3 fav. and most used bores.

[ClassicsRock]

... and would like one of the best barrels around for there non-quest marker?

Just curious, what makes these "one of the best barrels around"?

[Maverick_1369]

doesnt matter for either, cuz almost none except cockers are even closed bolt anymore, and no DM's are not

all i shoot is .693, and so do a lot of pro teams.

[ClassicsRock]

Umm, my Shocker is closed bolt.... :dodgy:

[Maverick_1369]

no, its not, unless its an old school shocker, which its not

closed bolt guns have the bolt forward at rest, not back, which the shockers are back

open bolt gun, just because it doesnt have the bolt visable doesnt meen its closed bolt

[CHeez-It Freek]

excalibers are closed bolt

[Maverick_1369]

yes, you are correct

[ClassicsRock]

no, its not, unless its an old school shocker, which its not

closed bolt guns have the bolt forward at rest, not back, which the shockers are back

open bolt gun, just because it doesnt have the bolt visable doesnt meen its closed bolt

I know. I was joking...

[Maverick_1369]

right....

[ClassicsRock]

Hence the dodgy. Of course I was joking. I've been around for a while...

[shortygermany]

Is there a chance to get a 680 or 679 barrel back for Reball Trainings ?

[Lilac1-for-the-lot]

.696! what.... i think there should have been .685, .687, .690 and then .693.. but thats just my 2 cents :P

Qft, .696 is just stupid. A .682 or similar would be very useful for reball practice.

[DSF]

Just curious, what makes these "one of the best barrels around"?
Well i was shooting ball on ball when i used it on ghosts quest, even after the famed chop:dodgy:
Plus the 7"control blah blah blah

[Physcojosh]

hehe They Look Heavy... Its ok I love my Redz... Super light.. i wanna test these tho

[DSF]

There not that heavy... rather light.

[aceofspades05]

There not that heavy... rather light.
yeah, its actually suprising how light the barrel is

[Maverick_1369]

I know you been around a while ClassicsRock, thats why I was kinda surprised by your comment.

I do agree with having a real small bore for like reball training though, that would be nice

[DSF]

yeah, its actually suprising how light the barrel is
Yeah it was odd holding it by it's self for the first time... it's not that heavy...
Its lighter then my freak...

[meatloaf]

It's about the same weight as a DYE UL.

....by weeks they meant years...

[Chicago Quest]

160$$$$:tdown:

[LU_aDaK]

gagme. I thought the 160 was a nightmare i had. I love FEP, but i cant spend that dow on a small kit.

[jeffreyjames]

sounds like a great kit since it skips over the "stock" bore size back. and theres plenty of paint that is small bore and even more that is large.
im afraid i dont understand all the folks that are into "overboring" because "the pro teams do it". the best way to get your paint to shoot straight and "far" is to match your paint to your barrel. if you shoot crap paint that isnt consistant, then i could see it so that you have room for the oversize stuff, but your undersize stuff will flutter around and be slower(because more air is getting around the ball instead of sending it down the barrel).
and from what i can gather, the pros do it because they use such fragile paint. "tourney" paint is not as consistent in size but breaks super easy. two reasons to have a larger bore.
95% of players arent going to use anything near that fragile, so should do whats right and match thier paint to barrel.

folks need to stop looking at what everybody else is doing and do what works for them and actually makes sense in the physical world(i.e. scientifically). be it a particular gun, or paint, or harness, or some other stupid thing. DO WHAT WORKS FOR YOU!

[papaintballer15]

.690 and .693 is all i use on my hammerhead. And im shooting .688,.89ish paint. dont notice any difference when using the .688 back.

[Gopher49]

so this will be cocker threaded? sorry if this is a stupid question

[DeadWalk38]

who said they would necro this lol well guess he did any way.
from my thinking they need to make a thread tell for sure information.

[gremlin75]

so this will be cocker threaded?

Correct.

[Gailon]

I said I was going to necro it. Before I decided whether or not to...Lu did. Which is fine with me let the pbnation guys or dave get mad at him instead of me 0=)

[team_Static_Age]

Great job rich. I cant wait for these outstanding barrel kits to come out. Im sorry to say but i might have to stick with the stiffi ...

[Gailon]

Everyone please take a look at the dates of the posts. Lu it was probably a bad idea to necro this post. People are going to get confused.

[LU_aDaK]

I posted the date. I just want everyone to notice how long we have been awaiting them.

[Gailon]

But lu ... we're getting them lol

[NYGuardians capt.]

i really want one............................................... ...

[not2happy42]

well ive held off for 4 months. im buyin a lucky kit im tired of waiting.

[DeadWalk38]

i need one bad cause im going to get another kit soon if it doesnt come out in another month or so.

[NYGuardians capt.]

i wouldn't get another kit because i love the way the 007 barrel works. and i alrdy own a freak kit with shocker and cocker threads and when the freak is properly sized it still doesn't shoot as nice as the 007 with the stock bore

[KRaven]

Hey folks, whenever i get these pics i will upload them. I just snapped some of the barrel kit this afternoon, be up in a bit.
pat.


dude when u going ot warpaint next...u should bring the kit with u and ill come see it...are they carrying these at warpaint

[KRaven]

Correct.

grem ure a mod now for whitch forums

[pbpromoindy]

O.k., for the 3rd time posted here, will we be able to just purchase backs for those of us who already have a front and one back????? If so, where??? Thanks.

[DeadWalk38]

when you amke it it should come with a extra front like a 16 or 12 and then 4 backs that would be cool

[DeadWalk38]

ohya please post soon when they will be availible or are we waiting for nothing please i would like to no.

[shutter_elite]

fep wont let ya down, look at all the other stuff they've let out, just have faith.

[USMarine928]

are we going to be able to buy parts of kits, say i want a .693 back and a 16'' tip, i dont want any of the other backs...will you be doing that?

edit- like for example how you can buy an evil pipe kit or you can just buy the fronts and/or backs seprate..

[NYGuardians capt.]

this thread has been revived for a third (or fourth, i forget) time... i'm sure a new thread will be posted by FEP when their is any updates.

[DeadWalk38]

hope so

[USMarine928]

personlly i just want a 16'' tip. but i guess if i have to buy the barrel kit i will do it. considering that a dye ul kit is 220 and thats the only other barrel kit that i would buy.

[NYGuardians capt.]

the dye UL kit isn't even worth it, the 007 barrel is so much better, i had a dye UL on my dm5. dye stuff is over-rated, cp barrels perform the same and they cost less.

[USMarine928]

idk man i prefer the ultralite to any other barrel except the 007 i was very impressed with it.

[NYGuardians capt.]

i've tried a large range of barrels and you might as well keep that pipe kit it'll shoot the same as the UL barrel, just not as light. all high-end barrels essentially shoot the same, except the 007 allows you to shoot with no front.

[KRaven]

yay now no matter what im buying this barrel and youre reg and youre dropforward wait atleast youre barrel...ehh i need money for a quest

[gremlin75]

I finaly gave up on waiting for this kit and just bought a deadlywind whisper

Once the 007 kit gets released I still may buy one though. I just wish I would come with some smaller bores as most of the stuff I shoot is tiny

idk ive always been impressed with the ultralites preformance, the pipe is nice but i dont liek the looks and i havnt used it since i bought it. i bought it because it was a steal, now i cant get rid of it:crash:

like i said im only looking to buy one complete barrel from fep so im hoping they will sell individual barrels, i only want a 16'' tip and a .693 or a .691 back, none of that other mumbojumbo.

[Intense One]

Quest rocks with the 16" freak on it! My stock back on the 007 was .696- I feel just too big, and I like the 16 from the back of the field.
rich/dave etc.. we need to be able to order just backs, or backs PLUS a different front lenght (12" or 16") Just my 2 cents!

[Gailon]

BAH barrel kit barrel kit where are you? hehe

Today was the first kinda cool day in Baltimore. In the 60's. And the paint i usually shoot was TINY. it was bouncing around a ton in my 689 barrel =( My paint couldn't fly straight worth a dang. I'd be better off throwing it hehe.

Can't wait for the kit.

:dodgy: lawl
it was a dm5 and its not mine anymore my old team made me get a shocker... i have a quest timmy and shocker, the timmy is getting ups on it at the medford store and i'm busy modding the fuck outta the shocker. so only my quest is working, but i'm selling both my timmy and shocker when they're done so i can buy a second quest lol. for the record i got the timmy for like 275 off ebay because it needed a new cupseal, and it came upped so it was well worth it.

[USMarine928]

ahhh got it, what mill and year is the timtim and how much u want for it pm me bro.
