So the guys over at Containment Crew did a proof of concept blaster back in 2014. According to them, the accuracy is greatly improved and there's no decrease in range. However they provided no firing demo or chrono numbers. I love those guys, but WTF 🤨

Duke Wintermaul did a much more in-depth side by side comparison. As I suspected, the brassed version only shoots 79 FPS compared to 127 FPS without the barrel, despite having upgraded motors, flywheels, and cage. The effective range decreased from 45 to 25 feet, and the consistency didn't change at all !

I think it's safe to say this mod is a total waste of time, energy, and money. Personally, I prefer the extra FPS from the unmodded blaster. I'll use my good darts when I want accuracy consistency.
