What is the most unique barrel that you have ever seen?

Hi everyone

I am just wondering about either custom job or unique looking barrel, is there one that you have seen that have a unique milling or ano job on it?

Not counting performance, just look

Ram rod barrel for over all design........ basically a back with some rod stock and some rings holding it together..

For porting? Some if not most of the J and J hard chromes, brass and stainlesses... they are just plain odd some times.. I had one that was knurled, and the porting was z shaped cuts.

For over all strange.. I have a one piece delrin barrel some where.

Those were made by System X. I have the ads for them in a couple Facefull's from 2002. I never heard good things about them at all.

I've got a heavy chunk of Brass about 7 inches long that has been turned with 1/8 inch wide cuts, 1/8 of an inch apart that threads into my WGP bodies....loud, heavy, and extremely ugly. Oh, and keep your finger off the front of your pump handle or you'll shoot your finger.

Some of the old J&J custom brass barrels. At one time they were made to order and some pretty wierd pieces were produced. Mostly just elaborate crowns or oddballl porting. I think they are cool though.

Yup the J&J's were pretty cool. Second from the bottom in WilD's picture came from a guy in Lansdale, PA (if it's the same barrel I sold WilD, which I think it is)

I had gotten some goofy vm barrels at one point in an auction that looked like they started as 1" bull barrels and were thrown on a lathe and tooled by a rabid monkey. Very ugly.
