Except I made a cradle for my tank using it and at SCAO it snapped.. but thats O.K.
If you get JB weld in your barrel, your screwed. That stuff is so sticky its not funny.

well the barrel is useless to me now

SO i guess I wouldn't be losing anything right?

Don't use loctite as it doesn't seem that its threaded. Loctite won't do much unless you have threads to work with.

I'd say go with Epoxy or JB weld, but only use a VERY small amount. Put the epoxy/JB weld on the front, not the back. That way the excess gets pushed towards the outside of the barrel, not the inside. Also, don't put whatever you use all the way down, leave about a 1/4 inch of the tip clean (It looks like about .5" or more goes into the back, 1/4 of solidly glued tip should be plenty to keep it in there assuming the glue is strong.)

If its loose, why not tip the AA front up as u glue it in so it creates a flatline effect

1)
JB Weld would work fine there. two-three small dabs on the BACK of whats going to get stuck in would hold it fine and you wouldnt have problems.

2)
LocTite MIGHT actually work. it needs metal oxides and a lack of oxygen to cure. you might be able to get it to do that, however, chances are too much oxygen would still be present

heheh it worked

Thanks to all the input


Nothing on the inside of the barrel either and quite clean on the outside (you can see a bit of the grey that squeezed out, but nothing major). Shoots like a dream

How exactly did the barrell break anyways?

Also Aliens-8-MyDad what did your father say when you showed him what you did to that spyder? I would think he would be a little bit embarssed to play with that thing, i mean what is that a rubber band holding it togeather, ahh man to bad you cant change it back. Just rember this is my opinion.

ya know im not sure how it "broke" It's a 2-piece barrel, wasn't threaded or anything, I think it was just old and the weld/epoxy they had in there dried and it just came apart one day when i was cleaning it. I was drying it off, twisted it in my hands and *plunk* it came apart.

at least you got it fixed, that's the good thing, hows it working for you now? as good as before better, worse?

works great. I got it in a trade and becore i even used it i was cleaning it and it came apart. But I can look down the barrel and theres nothing inside, looks like it's brand new. I tried to take a pic of the inside but they didn't come out that good at all. I used very little JB weld, i mean VERY VERY little.

a few dots around the front piece (slid into the back part) and let it sit overnight.

Is that string holding your frame onto the body of the marker??
