Hi. When I look at my thundermug, so it appears that there are plenty of goods when I have a wall thickness equal caliber.
I feel very safe.  ;)
But the wall thickness equal caliber is well when you shoot with a projectile?

Yes, wall thickness is the same as caliber whether a salute gun or projectile gun.  The reasoning is that at some point in the future, you will lose control of the gun to someone else and we want the gun to be safe for projectile use when some subsequent user so uses it.

I'm curious about the reason for the two spanner holes.  Maybe for interchangeable choke cylinders?

Hi.
Has made two new.
Approx 200-230mm high 100mm diameter and 33mm drilling.
I am so lucky to work where they produce axles for large boats.

There are a lot of ends that are left .. ;D

Hi Oyvind, I've also been curious about the two holes on the muzzle face, and what the original purpose of the steel tube was, and you've now answered both of those questions, but I've got one more; did you put the lettering & numbers on the one tubes muzzle face, or were they already there.

RIP John. While on vacation July 4th 2013 in northern Wisconsin, he was ATVing with family and pulled ahead of everyone and took off at break-neck speed without a helmet. He lost control.....hit a tree....and the tree won.  He died instantly.

The one thing that you can almost always rely on research leading to, is more research.

Hi.
It is the steel quality and production number.

I have labeled the inn.
It will come at all even with my signature.
Going to make several in different sizes.
Coming to produce an in ST52 (S355J2G3)
should take a picture of the shaft wrecks.
and ends that are too short to production.
wrecks price is cheap!
