A topic like this should be in the Upgrades and Customizing forum. It is helpful to read the Uber Upgrades & FAQ sticky at the top of the U&C forum. Also, the Progressive is a good, not too expensive barrel.

ive used the teardrop which is very similar and they are nice, you just need to watch out when you break the balls curve like no other

If you are looking at keeping your gun then... I would go for a kit. Like a Freak kit. But iff not then... Yes, it is a good barrel.

teardrop is good unless u break paint, freak kits are also very good, especially with all american fronts.

the progressive barrel is a great barrel for the price.  if u want u could spend some more money and get a dye ultra light.  if u have the balls (and buy that i mean money) u could get a sanchez machine sm-1 barrel kit.
