Hi all and more specifically Jacques,
I've read your reviews, I have my opinion about the Eduard barrel I used on my PT-91 sometimes ago and I still can't find which is the "ultimate" replacement barrel ?
The Eduard is clean, neat with the straps and "ridges" in PE but incorrect in length (in fact it is identical to the Tamiya's barrel on this point) but looks OK in diameter.
This should not be that hard to get hand on a real thing to have at last a good barrel !

Ok Olivier, I tell you what. I will do the measurements on the Eduard 2A46M and let you know where it stacks up.
However, since, like you metnioned the Eduard barrel is too short, it seems the Model Point barrel is probably the best place to start with. Getting ahold of PE buckles is not bad criticism, and the barrel length and diameter is spot on, if my sources stay correct. :-)
