Needle bearing, eh? Am sure a piece of solid wire or barstock will do the same. Never thought of that. Thanks for THAT advice.

Wait a second. O-ring?

I assumed you just meant wrap tape around the inner barrel, but I read it again and went wha?
My inner barrel is like shwa(along with all the other parts in there):
Oh and that pic was taken before I took off the orange plug. :P

Holy crap. That works. I tried the tape, and it shoots WAY straighter now. I may have to tweak it a little, but it's mostly good now.

Shimming the space between the inner and outer barrel works for many GBB and even some AEGs.

Well, there ya go! I assumed you had a KSC, but looks like we hit the nail on the head. Saint has it right, reduce any movement of the inner barrel and it'll greatly increase the accuracy of the gun.

Yeah I have an HFC. And I added a thread in Doctor's Corner on how to fix the problem.

If what I understand of hopup physics is correct, that puts a slightly off axis spin on the BB, causing it to go left a little. Dunno if that applies here, though.
If the lever is put moved down to the left (assuming that would be from the shooter's perspective) it would put back-right spin which would throw the BB right. the reverse would be true if you meant down and left looking into the barrel, no clue why you would do that though.

Gotta love the electrical tape

Most likely. When I saw the size of the bearing in there I remembered that the needle bearings in the ujoints on my roomie's Suzuki 4x4 were about the size I needed. So off came his front driveshaft. They needed replacing anyway
