NEW product SPOTLIGHT Freak XL Barrel System There may be no better known, more used or highly thought-of barrel system in the world than the Freak Barrel System from GOG Paintball. The original Freak Barrel System is undoubtedly the most widely used and highly respected interchangeable bore barrel ever made. Through years of tournament proven performance it has been the benchmark of consistency, accuracy and flexibility. The new Freak XL builds on that legacy, combining user feedback with extensive research to deliver the next evolutionary step in the Freak system. The FreakXL features a eight inch control bore allows players to reduce operating pressures in the marker, increasing efficiency and reducing the impact of air on the paintball, potentially reducing breakage. The Freak XL is available in multiple lengths, porting configurations, and even as a super light one piece carbon fiber system. www.GogPaintball.com.
