I tried that way but there way no way I was going to slide the barrel into that lol. Maybe yours is more forgiving?
I put the sleeve onto the barrel first and matched the groove, then using a Qtip with silicone oil on it I lubed the interior of the chamber and on the exterior of the sleeve. THen I slid the barrel+sleeve into the Chamber. Then you have to watch that the sleeve end (where the bb goes in) is perfectly round and not crooked hole. Also you need to check that the sleeve is not overstretched by checking when you insert the hopup nub how much it shows in the barel when you look down the barrel.

Also you check check streching if the sleeve is streched too much by the clip. If you can't put the clip onto the barrel because the sleeve is sticking out and in the way, that means the sleeve is too streched. Try not to rip the sleeve if you insert it poorly and need to pull it back out to try again.
