Seen it done.

Hi Griff.

I have seen it done. A chap was munched on the knee by a Raggie on the surface at Aliwal last year.
He then braized a stringer spike to a circular clamp which clamped to the barrel behind the muzzle. The tip has a normal chunk of 20mm rubber keeping it out of business until needed.

I suspect the gun was not a rail gun as the clamp would have interfered with the rail. Your could machine off the last inch of rail if you wanted to accommodate the clamp. ( similar to a reel clamp.)

It worked i believe.

Skin.
