Stackng Barlow lenses

Hello,

Do you think it can be problematic to stack two Barlow lenses with my Heritage 130p?

Its maximum magnification is 260x. The magnification of the 10mm lens is 65x, so obviously 2 2x Barlow lenses would provide the maximum level of magnification.... I was thinking of planets and constellations or nebulas of course, not the moon. (There is also a 4x Barlow lens on eBay, but it is very expensive.)

Thanks!
