Ron if you go back to Darrens post on May 25th, click on the link he supplied, there is a picture of one on ebay, You're to late to bid on it now.
I think I'm right? But I'm new at this.

Another Ron

Default Here are some detail pics
I got these a few years ago from a collector in the UK.
I think the pic shows a WW1 version, with the cleaning rod fitted through a hole in the cap. The pic in the LP2 manual seems to have a plain cap.

I had a replica made which I stow on the carrier for displays.
I had a tapered flat piece on the end, but now think I misinterpreted the pic.

I'll find a pic of that.
