Matrix springs are Garbage...do not buy Matrix springs. It's an Evike House Brand and they are the lowest quality parts around.

And you can find better motors other than rebranded Star Wei's for less...(ASG Motors).

Lonex Blue is PolyCarbonate
Lonex Red is POM

Thank you for your reply! My inner barrel is right around 240mm and 6.03mm in diameter.

Who made the barrel, what material is it? Is there a coating on it? How is the finish, glass smooth with the refraction test or can you see machining marks?

I have seen Action "6.03mm" barrels with a horrendous finish on them. You could see scratches and a spiral, which says they pulled it off the mill to fast and then didn't finish the surface after the initial bore...it short horribly...

Brass isn't bad at all.

Better than a coated Al barrel

But, I was under the impression is was actually "drilled".

I wish I had that link that showed how they made brass barrels...I know my terminology is misapplied and a formal video and nomenclature would be appreciated.

Hammer forging is how the rifling is put in...and as a side effect how the barrel length and shape comes out.

Nickle plated steel?

Ummm...no they are not.

Well...isn't details wonderful?

When it's defined on what you discuss, it helps everyone.

They have many barrels of assorted desgns and only of SS-304.

Looks like they have long discontinued the Smart Carbon Steel Nickel Barrel. Not a single mention of that material at all...and quite honestly, not and ideal material and finish to make a barrel in...

Most likely old stock.

Like the original Crazy Jet Brass barrels. Still found in a few places, but has been out of production for over 15 months.
