			Another fairly common method of breach loading involves covering a hole in the barrel with a [[coupler]] that has had the inner stop removed, as in [[bushing modification]]. The same leak issues that exist with holding the breach-end of the barrel into a socket exist, and the solutions are the same.
			Use entails sliding the coupler forwards, dropping the ammo in, and sliding the coupler back.
