Sure as Fondueset said it's hydroformed alluminium: Omer charts say the HF barrell is 20% stiffer than the Carbon T20 (which is 1,75mm thick carbon wall)and 7% stiffer than the Cobra Teak woodie. Which means: very, very stiff.
I haven't bought it or tried it in water, but I had the chance to hold it in my hands at the town shop, and I was pleased by its light weight for such a big gun. By the way, the shop owner said the HF barrell is made in the USA.

PS-
Andre 82, no one yet has seen the Cressi Geronimo: it is scheduled to be available from the end of this month in Italy. It's good looking and has an interesting design. I'm curious to see it cause myself gonna buy a 100 centimeters bandgun to replace my old Excalibur Carbonium 100: still undecided between Seatec Gabbiano, Cayman HF and maybe the Geronimo...
