Mine are plain twist. Twist barrels are underrated, in my opinion. The wood on mine is uncheckered as well and I will probably leave it that way, but I am tempted to have someone leach out the oil and cigar smoke smell in the wood.

I believe I read somewhere, probably TPS, that Stub Twist was considered a higher grade of barrels, ranking between Plain Twist and Damascus.
