Used linen on the one I built π its generally accepted that its to heavy if you use canvas but I wish your freinds the best of luck are they using it all over the punt or just on the deck ? All the best Of

Hi Sorry to disagree but I think your mistaken I believe traditionally it was linen on the deck and pitch or tar to stop the joints and seal floor canvas strip over the inside joints possibly Although I'm no expert and could well be wrong π It's looking great massive amount of work and effort in it Are you a carpenter by trade if you don't mind me asking All the best Of

Hi Sorry my link isn't very good and sorry you think I think its law I don't However I do feel as its such a grey area and for my piece of mind it is best policy to submit a gun for re proof after work has been done Hope this clarifies my thoughts All the best Of

These were extra long magnum little rob Rto Didn't have any of the crimp trap ones left and to be honest wasn't to keen on fireing these to get the pictures Not sure if its the same problem with yours but the fiochie seem to work better for my gun and fortunate its a ou so I can easily check up the barrel Hope this helps All the best Of

Hi Well in the spirit of PW I went to the range today to get the empty cases Bottled out after 9 These were rto eley 3inch Anyone want a few empties for Reloding Please anyone using these check up the barrel after each shot I'm sure its just a bad batch but there's issue here in my opinion All the best Of

Hi appreciate your reply and thoughts and agree with you in a lot of what you say However that only applies if the moderater is on the gun and if its made from a equal strength material Like I said I don't know the law and for peace of mind sent mine for proof The solution is simple over barrel shroud with a screw tightener no need to screw cut All the best Of

Think they use a different powder in them between the 2.1/2...and 3 inch shells Could be the cause I have half a box of the 3 inch eley from the bad batch in the interests of science and being stupid I will fire them on Sunday and. If I survive I post the pictures All the best Of

Hi Jo Don't know how many failed but I do know how many I messed up learning how to screw cut them I was practicing on scrap barrels It is a precision job and a lot of materiel to remove from some of the heavy bull barrels and very important to leave the correct amount to put the thread into Best advice pay a proffesional gunsmith and go for re proof Just my thoughts All the best Of
