Default Damper...yup just one!

Guys

Im in dire need, i need to use a buggy damper for a starwars model, its basically to simulate a recoiling and returning gun barrel.

For this, i need a basic size damper...anybody got something like an unused Durga damper or similar i can bum?

Im sure many upgraded there DB01's so any chance, as i dont want to buy a full set lol...obviously ill throw some cash your way...if you got one.

Thanks fellas

I've got some spare micro ones lying around (mini-t size) if they are any good to you? They are just taking up room in my pit box........

Buddy that is a seriously kind offer, but the Micro ones havent got the kind of weight behind them for what i need to move.

If you imagine this gun barrel (a studio scale Hoth Ion cannon in fact), has to slide back and forth inside a tube, operated by a damper...with no spring (a spring would give too harsh a recoil) smoothly!

Again though, thanks for the offer buddy...i cant believe im being this cheap, but the project is a pricey one

Would it need to hold oil ! I have a ZX-5 front that we ripped the bottom cap off, screws in but leaks so no use to me ? shaft/piston/top cap all OK, pm me an address if any good.
