Hi,

I am looking at getting one of these kits to use with my mini and was wondering a couple of things:

Is there any differance in performance between a 14" or 16" barrel?

Tip wise is there a differance between the freak tip and the all american tip or is it purely cosmetic??

Cheers,

Jon

There's very little in it. People will tell you there is a difference but personally there isn't. The bore size does improve efficiency which is why the freak kit is a good buy

No difference between 14" and 16" with regard to performance, no more accurate at all. Some people like longer barrels like 16" when playing sup-air tourney ball because they use them to push against the inflatable bunkers.

Likewise, there's no difference between the two tips beside cosmetics. I personally prefer the All American tip but that's just me.

all American tip has an arched drop shot, whereas the freak tip has a flat shot in comparison
