Is buying 4mm rod and drilling through to 2mm out of the question? I guess it depends on the length you want.
I guess you have tried 'that site'. How about model shops?

I don't have a lathe so drilling rod is not a possibility. I did find a place that sold 'hollow' set screws but that would involve cutting threads etc.
I have bought some 4mm OD tubing with 0.5 mm wall thickness, and some 3mm OD with 0.5 mm wall off the site. I will try Loctiting one inside the other and then running a file or drill up the middle. It's £4 or so, worth a try anyway....
Tubes that size are probably easiest to find from modelmaking suppliers, it's the sort of thing you'd find on scale models of trains and steam engines

Be good. And if you can't be good, be good at being bad.
Plenty on the bay, and B&Q sell brass tubing in their metal rack, got some there to use on a Crosman revolver.

If this is all for your Hawk MK3, Alistair?
The using a Vulcan breach seal allows you to sleeve the transfer port right through from the cylinder face to the breach face --- I only mention this as the Hawk breach seals used to be different to the Vulcans.
