1/2 inch thick brass buttcap. Pix. What do you think?

Mohd is right except that it should be linked to "heft" versus length. In other words, a 15" AK might need thicker than a 20" Chaimpuri.

It may be time for Gelbu to do a brass search -- as if he didn't have enough to do already.

Last time I was in Nepal there was still no phone books to speak of, no yellow pages, little advertising of tools and materials so if you wanted something in that category you literally had to go searching for it. I suspect things in that arena have not changed too much. Finding various thicknesses of brass could be a major effort but I think I'll ask Gelbu to start looking.
