Hi Luca,
Wishing you have a Merry Christmas already, and a Happy New Year soon.

From your above-quoted website, written by "Otto Skorzeny" (You?) on 1/11/2010:
http://freeforumzone.leonardo.it/discus ... 89865&p=14

there is a blank fire kit, and a sentence: .....il blank fire dell’Armortek.

Is it the Armortek's kit? (Please forgive me for not understanding Italian.)
If yes, is it heavy?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry for this long delay Chang.

In our local forum Otto Skorzeny am i.

That you can see is the blank fire kit supplied from the Armortek, it's quite heavy, think 2-3 kg.

An happy new year you too and to the others tankers

Hi Luca,
Thanks for the infomation.
In one of your photo, there is a long metal part (yellow arrow indicated) between the blank fire kit and the gun's thread inner tube. Is this part of the blank fire kit?

Yes it's a sort of adapter supplied in the kit, otherwise the blank fire mechanism would hit the bracket for rise up and down the gun.
