Default Muzzle covers
Hi all,

Speaking of muzzle covers, can anyone help me identify this one please?

I'm assuming it is a muzzle cover. It is dated 1944 inside the cover. The diameter at the end is about 7", or around 180mm.

I would say they look like 5.5" covers, but I would have to measure the muzzle to be sure.
