duct taping the barrel plug

[Sir Chopsalot]

whenever i get a barrel plug i always pull those o rings off of them because they are too hard to get in the barrel and just put duct tape on it. now the last time i went to the paintball field this guy tells me that its bad for the barrel, can someone shed some light on this?

The worst thing I can think of is that it may leave dusct tape glue in your barrel and affect your accuracy. I'd recommend a good barrel bag instead anyway. Much safer anyway.

i would just invest in a barrel condom/BBD. these are much safer IMO, and they are easier to take on and off. they are also cheap.
