PCRI Product Evaluation

LAPCO's Stingray Barrel Adapter

The Stingray barrel adapter for the Brass Eagle Stingray is manufactured by LAPCO of southern California. The barrel adapter allows Stingray owners to use Spyder barrels on their guns. LAPCO's Spyder barrel adapter retails for around $22.

Design/Construction:

The Stingray barrel adapter is manufactured from a lightweight metal alloy (probably aluminum) and has a gold finish. The barrel adapter is threaded to accept Spyder barrels on one end, and slides into the Stingray receiver on the other end. The two pins that hold the Stingray barrel in place now hold the barrel adapter in place. The adapter sticks out from the Stingray receiver slightly, exposing the end of the brass colored adapter.

Design/Construction rating (3)

Performance/Versatility:

Not a lot to talk about here....the adapter allows the user to use a variety of barrels that would not have worked on the Stingray otherwise. This is a well thought-out product. We tried several aftermarket Spyder barrels using this adapter and all worked.

Performance/Versatility rating (4)

Price:

At $22 retail the LAPCO Stingray barrel adapter is priced very fairly.

Price rating (4)

Conclusion:

If you're a Brass Eagle Stingray owner and you're looking for an aftermarket barrel for your gun, The LAPCO barrel adapter will make that search much easier. However, it also makes the aftermarket barrel $22 more.
