Re: Regged Carbine Shot Count.

Ta Alan, it's a Lane reg but you've given me a target. As regards the tube, checking the markings it seems it should be seamless as it's got a "DOM" mark which denotes Drawn Over Mandrel so it seems the groove is a broached line. I know they put a groove in the end fittings as a burst safe...

Re: Fill pressure

First off you're not going by the gun gauge are you? if you are testing it's always better to leave the gun connected to the bottle so you're using it's more accurate gauge.
