I have read several of the threads on the tape mod for a daisy 880 barrels. I have not found where it tells exactly how to get the barrel out of the shroud. Please let me know how that is done. Thanks, Joe

You don't take the barrel out of the shroud, you take the shroud off the barrel.
You'll have to take a few screws out. I can't remember exactly how many. And when the shroud is loose, slide it off the barrel away from the receiver.
Sorry I don't have more detailed instructions. But that's the jist of it.

They might sound like a lot of work till you realize you only need 3-4 pumps for plinking.

You have to remove the 2 screws at the very front of the rifle and slide the forearm panels forward then lift them off, the have a hook in them that lock them in place, then you remove the front receiver screw just under the bb loading port on the left side and the one in the same spot on the right side. Once you've removed these 4 screws you can remove the shroud and tape the barrel up.
The easiest thing to do is just give it a wrap or 2 of tape at the very end to make it fit into the front sight / muzzle piece snugly, I find it easier for any gun with a shroud construction to put a stick through the end into the barrel to line it up when putting the shroud back on because they don't naturally sit centered when unsupported.

One other thing... They have gotten a lot better recently with making the barrel fit into the muzzle piece more snug. Once you have the shroud off you can run a dowel up in there and tap the muzzle piece out. Then you can fit it to the exposed barrel and check it. If it is loose you can do your tape mod and check exactly how much you need to make it snug, if any at all.
