Hi to all,
picked this up yesterday,made of clear plastic?,two 'drivebands' and internal threaded section,around about the same size as a Rarden APDS pusher assembly.
Any ideas chaps?



Cheers
Tony

Hi Tony,
You are correct, it is a Rarden APDS pusher assembly. Can't remember off the top of my head which L / A number it is but will dig out the info tonight for you.
Best regards,
Charlie
 
Hi Tony,
Its a "Obturator Assembly" (part of the pusher assembly) from a Rarden DSRR L15A1 or L15A2. There is no way of telling which as the changes between the two had no bearing on the pusher assembly.
Hope that helps.

Many thanks Charlie,first one of these I have come across...do they usually break up perhaps?


All the best
Tony
