Why not shave a bit off the "lip" of the hopup unit where it contacts the face of the mechbox shell? Integrity of the mechbox/internal parts is still intact..and hopup units can be swapped if you botch it.

It would still bring the the nozzle closer to the lips of the hopup rubber...and most times there's enough play in the magwell/magcatch to allow the mag some wiggle room.

Hopefully you're only looking for <0.5mm.

Otherwise...take a longer nozzle with a similar body profile and turn/shave it down...or make a custom one from scratch.

The last custom one I had made was made out of derlin and didn't take too long. (cost me a case of beer though)
