| Congratulations to Bob Yates of the Dismal Swamp Rangers, for winning the Felker Award for the best musket aggregate with a score of 190-4X during the 1994 Spring N-SSA National. "I could not have done this without a quality barrel. That is why I re-barreled my Enfield with a Whitacre barrel and plan to get two more, one for my Springfield and one for my Mississippi. I really like your products!" Bob Yates |  | |
 | "Dan has made two barrels for me and both are tack drivers. After only eight sighter shots with the second one I shot a 96-3x at 100 yards. Of course, this was at my home range, no pressure and plenty of time. If I could only do this at a National, but then, we know it is me and not the gun. Dan does great work." G.S. "Steve" Naylor, 17th Virginia Infantry CSA | |
| "I have built 15 muskets using Whitacre barrels and have learned to expect excellent performance from every barrel." Ed Nickodemus |  | |
 | "Thanks to you I had a solid performance in the Team Musket competition at the 105th Nationals...During the competition, I used a Euroarms P-58 Enfield with a Whitacre barrel and sights that you installed...It is easy to see why testing during the development of the rifled musket showed that the progressive depth rifling and rate of twist that you have chosen to use in your barrels was the best. Many people say that there is nothing like shooting an original musket. Thanks to your barrels we can still do it!" Jim Wimbish | |
| "Very satisfied with the quality and accuracy of Dan's barrels. We've been using them for 12 years with great success. Dan is most personable and obliging, always willing to share his knowledge and experience as a machinist and barrel-maker extra ordinaire." Grant & Nancy Schweyer Washington Blue Rifles (National Champions) |  | |
 | "I have built over 15 muskets using Dan's barrels and every one is a real winner." Ken Hoffman | |
| "Just won three first place medals at the 102nd N-SSA Nationals with a Dan Whitacre barrel on an 1858 Cadet Rifle." Les Knutsen |  | "I have tried other barrel makers and I have found the Whitacre barrels to shoot right out of the box and perform great. I now have five guns with Whitacre barrels and recommend them to our new shooters." John Smallwood, 1st USSS |
| "I have discovered that coming up with an accurate rifle is a process of elimination...you remove the things that don't (or won't) shoot and replace them with quality equipment that does. In my experience, if you choose one of Dan's barrels, you don't need to worry about the barrel being a problem anymore." Jim McAlister, Commander, Coastal Rifles |  | |
