There isn't too much here, but a few things.
Freak Reball Insert:
I made this back when SP first had the idea to crank out a limited batch back in April 2006. I tried my hand at it and turned out an aluminum version at 0.670" diameter, length 5.060", with an outside diameter of 0.745". I used 6061 aluminum for this one.
I didn't surface treat it through anodizing or anything, just left it raw. As a result of that it got pretty banged up, so I ended up making a new one from 303 stianless, much more durable.
As stated SP did a limited run of these back in mid 2006 but they were all sold out instantly, please don't bother asking me where to get one.
Modded Freak Barrel:
I took an old Shocker AA back and bored it out to hold a regular Freak insert. I placed one o-ring groove in the rear of the barrel and let the insert hold itself inside the lip of the barrel front (Freak backs normally have two o-rings). I also had to bore out the front of the barrel and re-tap it to screw onto the front, because Freak barrels are a little shorter than All Americans. It was my first time tapping internal threads but it worked out okay.
