2cm Flak 30 Reproduction: Muzzle Brake Dimensions Needed

Post by schnellenTruppen »

Hello,

Does anyone have access to the dimensions of a 2cm FLAK 30 muzzle breake and would care to share them? I need it for a reproduction I am working on.

Thanks,

Tom

Thought I would include a picture of the progress. The kit came with a 2cm Flak 38 cannon that was built for a 222 replica that never happened. There are a couple of original 2cm flak 30 muzzle brakes out there, but I want to make two barrels and I don't want to pay the $500+ they are asking. Looks a little rough now, but its coming along nicely.

Thanks for the help. Unfortunately I am in the Southern US. I am not aware of any publically veiwable FLAK 30s here, let alone within traveling distance.

Do you need a collimator for it? I have one somewhere in my clutter.
