The little foam bumper piece that sits at the front of my bettermag adapter ( https://www.redi-mag.com/product/better-mag-s-22-rimfire-magazine-adaptor/ ) finally let go.  1) Do I really need this? 2) If yes, what would be the best adhesive to use to put it back?

Running a dedicated Cmmg 22 upper if that's relevant..

No idea whether it's necessary, but I'd bet some thin foam tape cut to the same size would make a easy replacement assuming it's even necessary.

Double sided carpet tape would probably hold.  That stuff really sticks.

I am hesitant to use something that might turn into a gummy sludge when it makes contact with clp.  The old foam bumper has held up fine except for whatever was gluing it down, so I would rather recycle the foam and just reglue it.  I will ask the manufacturer and see what they say.

Or just remove the BMA before you spray it?

Ive been using it without the bumper for ages.  Until this thread, I hadn't even thought about it since I probably installed the thing.

The manufacturer advised "any glue should work" so I put a dab of loctite extreme glue on it.  If it fails I will update this thread.
