GOG Freak XL Front ACP 2023

With its ability to adapt to changing paint size and quality without requiring a gear bag loaded down with barrel backs, the FREAK® barrel system set the world standard for portability, performance and flexibility. In its 8-inch (20 centimeter) XL control bore size, the FREAK® XL barrel system is even better, delivering improved efficiency and consistency.

Trust the Original, the FREAK® barrel system has won more tournaments in past decades and is used by more players than any other barrel or barrel system on the market.

The simplicity combined with its flexibility is what made the FREAK® barrel system the leading barrel system on the market,
- 1 barrel back, that fits your marker,
- 1 barrel front, which determines your barrel length and thus precision, and
- 1 barrel insert, whose inner diameter can be adjusted to fit your paintball,
combined complete a FREAK® barrel.

For each of these three components of the FREAK® barrel system there is a wide variety of options to choose from, threads for most markers on the market, the classic barrel front, All American barrel front or All Condition Performance barrel front and 9 different inner diameters for the inserts.

In 2023 the FREAK® XL barrel system received a facelift and presents itself in a revised design. The FREAK® XL inserts with 8 inch (20 cm) length are now standard. During redesign of the FREAK® barrel system player input was analyzed and the handling was significantly improved with the new design. Special attention was given to the performance of all components to give players the best possible shot with the all new FREAK® XL barrel system.

Now the Freak® ACP™ barrel fronts are taking on rough weather, mud and even paint fill.

Taking their name from All-Conditions Performance, The Freak® ACP™ barrels combine the power of the Freak® XL system with an all new barrel front designed to keep going through the worst field conditions. On the outside four rows of barrel porting help equalize air pressure in the barrel with the outside air for a smooth and quiet transition from acceleration to free flight. On the inside the Freak® ACP™ sports an all new look. Sixteen rows of smoothly transitioned grooves and rails bring the benefits of straight rifling to the Freak® XL.

Rather than spinning the paintball with a spiral rifling pattern, ACP™ straight rifling provides the same linear path as a traditional smooth barrel while being better equipped to cope with the barrel fouling that comes with rough weather. Once the paintball exits the Freak® XL control bore, it literally rides on rails through the length of the barrel front. Dust, mud, paint fill or rain can literally be blown out of the way into the grooves of the ACP™ rifling, rather than wedging between the ball and barrel wall where they cause off axis spin and hook shots, or worse – binding and breaking the ball in the barrel. Field proven by some of the world’s top players through their development cycle, ACP™ barrel fronts shoot cleaner, faster when the going gets rough. They put more paint on target in less time, which is the Freak® XL’s winning advantage.

Paint changes. Weather changes. The Freak® XL with ACP™ is ready.
