Where to find a tightbore for a CA36?

[Galahad]

Just wondering if anyone knows where I can find a tightbore barrel for my CA 36E (495mm stock barrel). I bought a 500mm barrel for it, but it wasn't compatible with the way CA's mount the barrel apparently, so I was forced to sell it. Any ideas??

... All tightbore barrels should work.... Perhaps you're just doing it wrong?

I had a gunsmith do all the work for me, and he told me that it wouldn't fit. So I was just wondering if there is a tightbore somewhere that specifically says it is compatible with a CA36.

You bought the wrong kind of barrel, a regular AEG M16 length 509mm will work, it's been done before.

Sounds like you bought a 500mm M14 barrel, which is different than regular AEG barrels.

K thanks for the quick replies, as soon as I get some money I'll probly pick up the 509mm one.

Cheers!

Check to see how close the flash hider sits to the end of the barrel. The inner diameter of the flash hider is less than the outer diameter of the barrel, so if it sits snug or close against the end of the barrel a longer one will not fit without a new flash hider.

Classic Army makes a 594mm 6.04mm for the G36, but it's a complete piece of shit. Strips BBs in a very odd way. I had one in my G36 for a few games, but it decreased both accuracy and FPS something fierce.

I think the 509 sat like 4 or 5 mm into the flash hider. Anyway just drill it out, you can do it using a portable drill.
