Stainless is supposed to be self lubrictaing, also lighter and a little more resilient to damage. I would recommed 10" or 12".

Stainless is smoother and much more durable.

Get the 12 inch.

The accuracy difference is almost unnoticeable. Just get the Aluminum ones, and take care of them.

Not much. Just length.

No. I have heard that longer Freaks break a lot of paint.

I would go 12" Aluminum. Anything over 12 is a waste and anything under 10 is usualy too small. Check out the uber post in upgrades and customizing for more info.

One of my favorite sites that has a lot of barrels is www.actionvillage.com . Heres a gun that has the freak barrel on it... http://www.actionvillage.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/eCS/S tore/en/-/USD/DisplayProductInformation-Popup;sid=Ik6imEJPJr uiUgA_EQhiMEiGan0mGNlNTN0=?ProductSKU=010-112-0031  . This is the stainless steel front which you can also get in black. The front of the barrel also has a little hole in it so you can see the color of the insert.
