Does anyone know where I can buy a Firefly buffer rubber? No one seems to have them in stock.
I'm going to attempt the 'Flat Hop' mod, which sounds fairly easy.

AFAIK No one carries them in stock anymore, your best bet, is to create a custom nub. However, there is a person on AirsoftForum who is developing a variation of the buffer rubber. His name is Krap101. He may have what your looking for. I have heard of people having success with using nubs created out of eraser as well.
I have checked all the HK and stateside retailers I know of, and no one has them in stock.

The eraser idea sounds promising, I think i'll try that.

eraser seems to be the go to choice for people. Personally, I use a small piece of plastic glued to the nub.

Krap101's nubs are meh, he is still trying his own ideas, and for the most part, they aren't ideal to use with the flat hop. While they will help, until he makes a flat nub that takes advantage of the full length of the hop up window, you are better of making your own.
