Hey Ryan, I'm Shadow's UK Distributor, but I'm also a player and can give you an unbiased opinion on these as I use them myself.
If you pop onto their facebook page (
https://www.facebook.com/paintballshadow) you'll find that everyone who posts up is delighted with their barrel.
The Shake is only 94grams or so altogether, that's a carbon fibre tip and a back. Very good finish, carbon fibre is solid and you won't break it with your bare hands, I've tried!
Noise- quiet, quieter than a shaft4 barrel, so very good, lots of porting.
Consistency- fluctuates at maximum 5fps either way, for me on my Geo2.1 its within 3fps always.
Grouping and accuracy- Extremely accurate, even with old paint I've found that the barrels give out consistent lanes, and the distance, I can achieve about 10ft further than with my shaft4.
Of course if you think I'm biased because I supply them in the UK, there's been a lengthy review done recently by a player on their page, there's a Ford Report article, and of course there are those that use them, lots of folks on facebook praising the barrels. Have a look and if you'd like to chat more about them, drop me a PM
Hope this helps!
