You could possibly try to roll up a brass sheet and put it in the barrel. You can also try shellac it to the barrel so it's not going to move. I've seen this in many Bexley pens and the only problem I could think of is if the pen is a demonstrator.
The tolerances between the barrel wall and the converter are quite small, so anything you might line it with - even lead sheets used to add weight on the heads of golf clubs - will most likely be too thick. I've got 5 different 3776 models and I can't see any way to add a significant amount of weight. If you like the nib and the basic shape of the pen, you might want to seek out the models of Platinum pens that use briarwood as the body material. Much heftier, though they are snap caps and you give up the "slip-and-seal".
