Matt Griffin Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I need some of this magical material to make a port blocker for my Mossberg 930, but I have no idea where I would find it locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outsydlooknin75 Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Hardware store or hobby shop should have it. I used a piece of sheet rubber found at the hardware store in the plumbing section to make gaskets. Sent from my PG06100 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chills1994 Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 MSC or Reid tool supply possibly. If not that, then maybe just plain ol' aluminum flashing meant to go on a roof or around siding would be of the correct thickness you are looking for. McMaster-Carr?? Grainger???

Ben Diss Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Get a big set of feeler gauges and you'll have a variety of hardened material to use of differing thicknesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
392heminut Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 You can also check at automotive machine shops and some auto parts stores like Napa and Car Quest. The box stores like O'Rielly and Autozone will probably be a waste of time though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Griffin Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 I noticed a little machine shop/auto parts store close to the house and they hooked me up with some .005 stock. Wrapped it around the ports on my Mossberg and it seems to do the job. I couldn't detect any gas coming out when I hip-fired it and watched closely. Good tip about the feeler gauge, I'll keep an eye out at Harbor Freight. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
