So, I've got a MB08, which is a pain in the butt-stock to get barrelspacers for, or even to make some for. (Reason: Fluted tapered barrel)
So i was thinking... If I just make a plug in front of my hopup unit, and stick my barrel through it, and I just stuff the whole gap between the outer and inner with Paper Mache (for those who dont know what this is, its basically paper pulp made from ...paper...and wallpaper glue).
Stuff should get hard, but best of all, would leave a smooth surface so I can take my barrel out, should I need to.
I tend to keep away from the WAX barrel spacer, since I fear it melting on me in hot climates.
Pro's:
-easy to do
-cheap
-one piece
-smooth finish if I wiggle the barrel back and forth
-heat resistant
Con's:
-messy?
-not water proof (but who cares inside the barrel?)
Anyone had experience with this? might be trying this week, since i'm prepping for a special sniper weekend. pics will follow of course
