Disco Double tube and New Blaster Stock on my Discovery as well as a New stock for my Marauder.
Got My Double Tube Kit from Lloyd at Air Gun Lab and The Stock from Normand at Disco's R US.

Thumb hole Stocks From Normand at www.discosrus.net (http://www.discosrus.net)
Below are some pics of my Discovery as well as my Marauder. I finished my stocks myself with High Gloss Polyurethane. I have put on about 8 to 10 coats of Poly using a lint free cloth (you can use cheese cloth) folded up and then sanding with 220 grit paper between each of the first 3 coats, the next 3 coats I sanded between each coat using 400 grit paper, then the last few coats I used #0000 steel wool. Took about 4 days to do this and still have to wait for some time to pass before polishing out any small rough spots and then waxing it. I also cut the fore end on the Discovery stock about 2.5" shorter, so I could install my Picatinny barrel band to make room for attachments. She shines Like a 10 carat Diamond. Thanks to Normand for the finishing advice
Here is what I done to the Gun so far!
1. Fixed Barrel Problem
2. Installed 6.5" TKO Muzzle Brake, super quiet.
3. Installed Disco Double Tube Kit (yes it does double the shot count and more)
4. Smoothed out the trigger pull and lightened the weight of pull
5. Cut the back of the Bolt off just a little to allow it to open further for easier pellet loading.
6. New Thumb hole stock, from Normand at Discos R US. As well as a new one for my Marauder.
7. 3 Screw Trigger Mod. Drilled Hole in lower link and moved Pin over for easier leverage, longer pull but a lot lighter.
8. Second Barrel Band with Picatinny Rail from Air Gun Lab.

Looks superb, I just love the forest camo billet. The gun is very consistant too, how is the accuracy with the new barrel?

All shots are inside of a dime at 25 yards or less, and at 40 yards it is 3/4" Groups and when I am doing my part I can get 3/8" groups at 40 yards. After fixing the bad barrel It will shoot just about any pellet pretty good. But of course some pellets will always do better than others!
