I have an HK 26.5mm flare gun and I'd like to use 12 gauge flares in it.
I have one of the 12 gauge aluminum adapters but because it doesn't sleeve the whole 5" barrel I'm getting a lot of unburned powder and very poor range, about 30' when it should be 100'.
Before I pay someone to make one for me, does anyone know where I can find metal tubing with an OD of 1.04" (26.5mm) and an inner diameter of 0.73" (18.5mm). Steel, aluminum or brass will do - the pressure produced by these flares is very low.
Alternatively, is there anyone with a lathe willing to take the job?
