    I use a tube cutter for soft body barrels. Another thing that I noticed is that you need a hard piece of sandpaper or file, otherwise you might apply too much pressure on one side while sanding and end up with an uneven barrel.

    Whenever you cut a body always cut ~ 1.5 cm more than necessary. After that, sand it down. For grips flatten it and cut straight down. :)

    if you're serious about modding, go get the needed tools.. x-acto knife, mini tube cutters, sanding paper are always needed to create the cleanest cuts if you're not serious about modding, then it wont matter anyways >_>|| PrinceXD
