Why fix what ain't broken? You don't have a feeding problem, so why use a solution that fixes a problem you don't have?
And it's not going to add enough friction to stop the gun from over cycling anyway, it doesn't add that much friction. I'm just saying you're looking at solving this problem the wrong way.

And there IS something wrong with the motor. The magnets aren't strong enough, and that's WHY it's over cycling.
Getting an SW-COMP with active braking will cost more than a new motor, and it'll just toast the current motor. You need a good motor to run an SW-COMP anyway.
Take the motor out of your gun, and spin it with your fingers, if it continues to spin, it has no stopping power. If you have trouble even turning it in the first place, it's a powerful motor AND it'll prevent over cycling.

I'm telling you, upgrading the motor will solve the problem 110%
