locking washer
Rob,
I have some NOS locking washers that go between the Muzzle and lock ring if you want one, you can have it if you cover the postage, I shouldn't think it will cost much. A Christmas present for the 17 pdr ! Rob......................rnixartillery Last edited by rnixartillery; 27-07-19 at 21:58.

Curiosity question, Rob. Is the orientation of the lateral holes in the muzzle brake, in relation to the threads on the brake, critical?
I am just trying to understand how the lateral holes end up to each side of the barrel horizontally when the muzzle brake is run home on the end of the barrel. Good thing I am not a cat. I would have been dead years ago! David

Is that not what the back nut is for? To lock it in final position? I have seen images of museum examples that have the brake set so that the holes are not horizontal!! I don't know how critical it would be under fire?
Beautiful piece of machining by your engineer Rob. Ron
