Firefly and maverick turrets are essentially the same.

Here is a cpvc barrel replacement for the ff.

Well normally you just take out the orange barrels and put in cpvc with hot glue where the stock barrels were.

Have you ever even CPVC'd a maverick? It doesn't really sound like it, because it is defiantly more complicated than that. You have to cut the stock barrels at a certain point, and there are several different methods of getting the CPVC to have a good seal with the air entry point. Cartoon dremeled the turret base down, I however ruined a Mav turret trying to do that. I found it easier to just seal the CPVC barrels where the stock barrels sealed off: onto the restrictors (once drilled through of course). Please edit your post so you don't mislead any newbs. Also, hot glue has very little sealing capabilities, in most cases. Doing it how you described would definately create a terrible seal.

You hack it and put the new barrels in place of the old. ITs that simple. Line it up and make it air tight. But from what I've seen its a waste of time and effort. Much easier doing this with petg tho.

Forgive my spelling and grammar. I post from my cell phone a lot. Sometimes when I'm on the can at work.
