Like some kind of rubber bands in the body of the arm.

I could add some o-rings and shims, which is what I might do. I haven't fully decided on a heavier arm, so it sort of depends on the demand. I honestly prefer milling polycarb and HDPE over aluminum, but there are some advantages to having a heavier arm beyond that of o-rings and shims. My third gun analogy of the day is recoil vs the weight of the weapon, as well as thicker barrels dampening vibrations. I'd imagine you'll see more benefit as you start shooting heavier rounds.
