I have an old Dcell Maglite made from AA.
The shape, length, and threaded ends make this ideal for a can project.
Saw off the end under the button, machine / bore a plug for the cut off end end, drill tap some machine screws, use one for a set screw...
I have made one many years ago for a .22 with very good results.
I have just acquired a Sub-2000, this is going to have a significantly greater amount of gas to control.
With machined plug, I end up with just shy of 600cc volume
Should I even attempt this as I did for the .22, or is it just going to be a pipe bomb waiting to hurt someone?
Does anyone have an good resources of volume/round @ barrel length ratios?

I vote no.
