Airsoft Canada - View Single Post - Screwing off ECHO-1 G36c's flashhider

I don't have a higher quality camera with me right now, but tonight I'll post some high resolution pictures of the damage.

In short I broke off 3 pieces, two of them being plastic on plastic (considering your suggestion of epoxy or JB weld) and the other one (the piece that screws onto the flash hider or silencer) is metal on metal.

I'm not too concerned with the plastic parts, because they're not responsible for holding the inner barrel stable, but the metal one is a huge issue.

Here are the pictures:

*** EDIT ***

This will give you a much better idea of what I'm dealing with:
