Anyone know of a "Quiet" Barrel for an X7 they would recommend?

not sure about x7 threads but the J&J product line is pretty quite. Lapco big shots are great barrels as well.
I read somewhere that barrels with reverse porting are ideal. the sound is directed back at the shooter versus toward the target.
Hammerhead barrels advertise this feature.

Okay I will check those ones out. Thanks
If you want the absolute quietest barrels then you need to get a carbon fiber barrel such as one from Sly or Stiffi, nothing is more quite but they are about $100. Like duck said, for the price the J&J's are pretty good, because of the sound dampening properties of the ceramic in them and of course the porting.
