I am working on an s-35, and I need information about the round cover that holds the ejecting charge to the bottom of the inside unit. Particularly material, shape, and how it was affixed. can anyone help?

Hi there are two types of ejection cover, the early one is a lead circled sheet held in place by a steel ring which is screwed down on the lead in place. The other type is a piece of thin tin with a slight indent that is push fitted into the void on top of the charge. Post a picture and I will tell you what you have.
