The barrel on the gun was warped after I glued it. So I did the hot water thing and then unwarped it, but bent the end of the barrel up. So I tried to fix it but it still looks bent. Could I just camouflage it with some "branches" off a tree that they added to the barrel for camo?

I think it would work, and it would look cool. Fall colors for the branches!

I think you're on the right track. I've got a couple of panzers that I built years ago - they show the seel line on the barrels, so I've simply wrapped the barrels with aftermarket camo netting and my boo-boo doesn't show nearly so badly.

If it can't be fixed, it can usually be covered. Good Luck.

Just get a Jordi Rubio or other AM barrel and the problem is fixed;
