is there anything special about the ones they sell from that site?
i ordered the barrel you described only for my m4 (different length)
im afraid i have nothing good to say about them. i fitted one along with an outer barrel extension because i got bored of my m4 cqb. bassicaly it seemed as if the fps had dropped by alot and the bb's were not reaching the end of the garden, and the hop became non-existant. this was a shock considering my shorter inner barrel was fine, i just had a little spare cash floating around and i wanted a little better performance out of my gun. i would recommend spending a little extra and not wasting your money tbh.
then again, with the acm company's there is always that chance that i got a dud.

did you change the cylinder in your gearbox? there are different types depending on how long your barrel is-and this can dramaticaly effect your fps.
for example, if you have a barrel lenghth of over 500mm you need a type A cylinder-one with no hole at all.
im sure if you do a search on google, or maybe even these forums there will be a guide for it.

hope that helps?

Ah you beat me to it. Basically if you move from a MP5 229mm to a M4 363mm, or whatever, there is now about 60% more volume of air inside the barrel to shift - hence loss of fps.
