I bought a set and they are no where close to going on my Spike's Tactical pistol buffer tube. Whats the secret .. heat? Cause these won't even stretch over the tube. |

Hope I can get them on. I saw some said 7/8" and some say 1". I'd imagine foam is no problem, the rubber type may be.

like i posted above... "i bought the 1" ones"... I sprayed some brake cleaner on the tube, it slipped on... about 2/3 the way... i used a plastic dowel or something to lift the edge of the cover a bit and sprayed again and it slipped the rest of the way on....
someone suggested using the non-water hand sanitizer, it has alcohol and some ingredients to lubricate a bit... |
