Well.. that is like comparing buying a no-name airsoft gun off china streets vs. buying a full-metal VFC or CA off a retailer...

Defenitely.

If you want to go cheaper, Madbull tighbores are nice too. The drawback is that since they are aluminium and have some coating to make them nice and shiny, they will wear down eventually.

Prometheus steel barrel will never wear down... unless you decide to pour 10 lb. of sand down the barrel and then hammer a pike down with it...

I opened my gun (Was very easy) and I seem to have the 3/4 Hole Cylinder Barrel Length 227/430 mm cylinder according to the Arnies Airsoft page.
So does that mean I cannot go to the 455mm barrel? how big a difference would that make?
I am now thinking maybe like Kos-Mos sid to upgrade to the prometheus 363mm barrel instead and then get a hop-up rubber.

Also for half the price I can get a 455mm Vanaras barrel.
I can also get a 363mm Vanaras for even cheaper.

How would the barrels really compare. Is the difference really worth double?
