you can r-hop any square cut barrel.. ymmv on performance. It will be an improvement over standard hop sleeves, but it really depends if you got lucky with a straight bore or not. The point of going to a nicer barrel is getting the bore diameter you want, a higher probability you will improve on the bore straightness, and in stainless a harder material than brass that hopefully be less resistant to corrosion and or scratching.

I think I've only ever seen 2 piston head failures, one was a guarder head in my p90 pre sorbo.
The other was a client gun, also no sorbo. Can't remember the brand off the top of my head.
