That would rock... fiberglass might work, could be hard... You could see if you had a break and it would just be cool. Glass... like bulletproof glass might work.

I dont know too much about fiber glass wouldn't it be hard to put threads to screw it onto the gun? and i dont think fiber glass is that clear...

as far a bullet proof glass goes, there might be too much friction and the porting would be difficult without shattering it

Piranha had a "prizm" barrel for one of their markers. It was clear.

A fiber glass barrel?

Whata waste time and money, besides....I think that barrel is jus fer display or a custom order to make someone's maker to look pretty.

he never said to play with bullets he said bullet proof glass because it is much stronger then regular glass and if you shoot a paintball at a glass window it will most likely break. so if your barrel whas shot during a game it would most likely break. hence the reason for bullet proof glass

the fiber glass one might work but the bulletproof glass one might be realy heavy.

Sorry to bring up an old topic, but this is interesting. PMI has one out, but I'm not sure of the material... A Lexan one would be cool... Or fairly thick plexiglass... Friction may be a pain, though.

God... Just because I'm interested in a clear barrel dosen't mean you have to slay me...They say not to create a new thread for the same topic, too. I hate the PMI one, anyway. Evil_fingers, I was very, very, VERY bored.
