Early Tiger Muzzle Brake
Posted: Sat Jan 23, 2016 11:19 pm
The production of Tiger 131 has meant that there is an opportunity to upgrade my Early Tiger. Mark and Gill have supplied me a new Muzzle Brake and its construction in three parts has made it relatively simple to have some fun adding detail.
I have added extra detail to represent the end of the barrel as it enters the muzzle I have also added a concave disc to the rear of the rear of the mid plate and then milled the openings on the forward parts to 30 degrees to conform to Rob Veenendaal and David Byrdens drawings. I have also remade the lock ring so that it has eight notches. I now have to fit it together and use Milliput to smooth off the junctions of the parts.
Once done, a photo or two will follow!
