    He tried that earlier but tells me the 410 breech is different. I'll have a gander tomorrow, either way is pretty easy.

    David you'll notice I said when empty! Thanks for the safety reminder.

    The toxicity of lead varies, depending upon the weight of its doseage and its velocity!

    Don't forget to empty the air out first!

    "Obviously power will need to be altered when the barrel length changes,"

    are you shure ?
    the longer barrel for my tdr gave my an extra 1/2 fpe which brought it up to being "low"

    the cyl on mine unscrewed easily (once empty) no trouble,
    id taken off the end filler and reinserted it so as not to crush the open end,

    as always heres a couple of pics ..
    both cylinders with gun
    and pre chamber

    JASON..
    lots of takedowns
