Adding Weight to a Tubegun?

Have an Eliseo R1 F-Open tubegun that weighs in at just under 15# and want to add 5#, or so, to get the weight up. What are the preferred methods for doing so? Are there any kits out there for adding weight? Thanks.
 
There are lead weights that are made to go under the forearm of a National Match Service Rifle. Maybe you can use a couple in fore tube. It shouldn't touch the barrel. Also, in buttstock, you can fill it with lead as well.
 
I add weight to my MAK tubegun by using an A1 buttstock and putting an XC 3lb lead weight in it. Gary was supposed to be making an adapter to allow A1 buttstocks to be used: might want to contact him.
