I have been working on it for about a week, I wanted it to be able to fire 9mm blanks (box of blanks left over from the 88) so to stay within the law I had to make some safety modifications, a new receiver fitted to breech block and into barrel with a 4 mm hardened steel pin located through barrel and receiver, allowing only room for the blank, and stopping any projectile,
also you can not vent from the front of the barrel, so I had to block the muzzle brake just forward of the first holes so it vents sideways, the muzzle break was also modified, (as this was to have been loctited into the barrel), the end of the barrel and brakewere tapped and a bronze bush screwed in and pined, this will stop the muzzle brake becoming a projectile, now that the main barrel assembly conforms to the law I started making a new breech lever with working spring catch, and the falling block fitted with firing pin, this is actuated by a prototypical side lever, pictures so far
