    Magazine Extensions

    Has anyone mounted a torch on a mag extension?

    Dont really see any problem with it since im using a barrel clamp, but just wondering if anyone foresees issues?

    Oh and ive used some rubber (bicycle tube) between the clamp and barrel to prevent scratching. However, since thats what i use for firestarting im starting to wonder if that was a good idea. Has anyone else done something similar?

    I have mounted a torch like that, no issues whatsoever.

    As to the tube, I fitted a length of bike tube over a saiga 12 barrel just in front of the gas block and clamped a rail over it to mount a eotech. Ten years and probably 50 cases of ammo latter it has not budged or had any other issue. I dryed the area well before fitting the tube, I used a 700x23c road bike tube so that it was a extra tight fit to keep moisture out.
