I will do some testing and maybe I will shorten the normal stopper so all the recoil force is on the new bloc.

See pictures so you can understand what the hell I'm talking about.

I'll test it soon as my gun is not in working order right now. I'll let you know how it goes. I'll post the dimensions of the block when I did some tests.

Comments?
That rocks...simple is best.

Comments
1. Slot/"hollow" the block a bit so it compresses/"crumples" a bit?
2. Is it hard to pull out? The GHK AK rubber block (they do the same sort of thing) is a BITCH to pull out...until you use a 3" deck screw. Drill it in a bit and then use the screw to pull it out.
