Tiger 1 Gun Barrel Extender

OK
This is probably a bone question, but I take it that the gun barrel extender for the Tiger 1 prevents the use of BBs.

No not at all, it lengthens the outer barrel but not the inner bb,s will still work but you might have to be careful getting the alignment of the inner barrel. What i did was go to b&q and get some 6mm alloy tube then cut it the same size as the old barrel plus the length of the extension piece, i did'nt try but it may be able to be cut a bit longer to bring it to the begining of the muzzle brake, if you do this take some bb's with you when you get the tube there are slight variations in size and some tubes are coated i just got the bare alloy one, also the outside diameter is smaller than the heng long stock barrel so were it went into the airsoft unit i used ptfe tape to make it's a snug fit not tight just a good fit.

Many thanks
Guess I've got no excuse not to do it now.
