Bovington Tiger 1 Photos - Turret

[Steven Day]

Here we go again. My Turret photos of the Bovington Tiger 131. Again I’ve concentrated on the weld details, which are more intricate than I first thought.

Here’s several close ups of the Turret Lifting Lugs that show you the welds.




Here’s a close up of the welds on the side of the Turret Wrap.




Here’s several close-ups of the welds around the Vision Port.

Details of the Barrel, including the welds to the Recoil Tube and Barrel Ring, the fixing screws that I assume holds the seal inside the Recoil Tube, slots cut into a collar along the length of the Barrel and the base of the Muzzle Break, and the details inside the Muzzle Break.
