Airsoft Canada - View Single Post - Inner barrel has difficulty going into outer

it's just a tight fit. Tight's better than loose.... hurrhurrrhurr....

joking aside, at what point does it start to get tight? halfway in? almost all the way in? Are you sure it's not the tabs on the hop up unit that are binding on the slots in the outer barrel?

Tight inner in the outer is not necessarily a bad thing... it becomes a bad thing when the spring on the hopup unit can't do its job and push back against the gearbox to complete the seal.
