Enfield Rifle Grenade Launcher
 
Gentlemen: I have finally come to having all the parts for making an Mark 111 grenade launcher. The only thing left is the "copper wire" to wrap around the barrel. Does anyone have any insight as to what was used regarding the "wire"? Or any other info would be more than welcomed.

Cheers....Robert :cheers:

Brass wire.
 
When I investigated this a few years ago I settled on 16 gauge soft brass wire for the wrap.

I found 3 rolls of it at a craft supply store. It is used for making decorative wreaths I am told.
