Larger OD Barrels?

[iamthelazerviking]

I like simplicity. And not spending too much money. So I dig the OG look and feel of the stock WGP pump handle (and the identical Hooptie).

Since these partially rely on the barrel for a guide/"anti-twist", what larger outer diameter barrels are out there? The last one of these pump kits I owned I also had a Tactical Kaner along with it, and there was zero twist. Felt great, but I don't want to hunt one of those down again or pay that much.

If you like the stock look, I'd look around for a stock barrel in the right length and then have if freak bored for paint needs. Or a Freedummy detent to prevent rollouts. A quick pop over to ebay for "autococker bull barrel" shows me some that might be up your alley. If Doc starts making Freak XL Bull barrels again then that would be a good option.

I have thought about that too. The stock WGP barrels are cool looking but I have read not great things about the bore quality.

Doc was making some not long ago.

I love the stock handle look too! The GAT pump arm guide from autocockerparts works great to take the twist out without worrying about the barrel, worth looking into once they finish their move and open the website again if you can’t find a good match.

I got one of those once. May try again, but it didn't line up the pump arm very well and caused more binding.

Ok yeah I can see then not working on all arms, I’d imagine your pump arm needs to not be warped for it to work well.
