Edgar made a great attempt to explain why a gap would exist at the doll's head after a set of barrels was refitted after correcting wear at the hook and the loop. Unfortunately, I don't see why any "new" gap would exist after making corrections at the hook and loop. Maybe Mr. Dudley would tell me if I am right or wrong. And I'm not making any negative comment about Russ Bickel's work, only about comments made in this thread about guns that have nothing to do with Mr. Bickel's work. Changes in the breech face usually have nothing to do with a gun getting loose. That is why the hook and the loop are usually corrected when a gun gets loose. Again, maybe Mr. Dudley will tell me whether I am right or wrong. I have never seen a breech face filed so the barrels can be set back, therefore creating a gap at the shoulders of the doll's head.
