I tried swapping the barrel over, its not really worth it,
2 reasons…
1- the plastic barrel is a very snug fit.
The metal barrel was loose…i wrapped one roll of masking tape around it, to firm it up.
Even with the 3cm longer barrel…no real difference to fps.
2-the outer barrel has a restrictor, 2-3 cm short of the muzzle. Its designed to have the plastic barrel snug against it ( plastic barrel was cut to size), and hold it steady. The longer metal barrel doesn’t pass through it.
As i said, in my firing tests, outer barrel off, it made no real difference…
I was able to wrap one layer of masking tape around the plastic barrel…it just pushed in…accumulated around the t-piece…maybe it will help with air-seal…
A bit of weathering, and done for the evening…
I’ll let the resin dry overnight, clean the excess up, repaint and lighlt weather the mag 2morrow…
OR…
Watch the election updates, all day…
Yeah, Right… Over all the ads…!!
( that we pay for!!)
All in all, the TEC-9 is a good little budget blaster…
Affordable, pistol performance, decent magazine size, and a unusual model…
Just bring on the metal GBB version…!!
And, a plethora of uzi’s …!!!
(though they would have to be good, to beat the quality of what i have…thanks FF!)
