    Friction rings are very sharp with burrs.

    Burrs not good. If you can clean up with a little sand paper would be good. The friction rings are pretty expensive. You don’t wanna dull the sharp edges.

    Really that cheap. Damn I paid 40 for my last.

    That’s the steel ring. I’m taking about bronze piece. Says 13 on my end

    And 19 for the 16. Don’t think they had them in stock when I got my last batch. I’ve never really had a problem out of the steel ring, so far anyway

    There’s only one part called a Friction Ring, the other parts are the Bronze Friction Piece and the Friction Spring.

    Yes you are correct sir, sorry my sloppy terminology. I do believe murphranch was on the same page last night

    The names can be confusing, I frequently check the schematic to avoid using the wrong term.

    Got my replacement parts and reassembled the gun. Shot everything from light target, high brass #5 to some 3 inch #2. Gun worked flawlessly other than spitting out 1 live round only once when shooting the light loads but I know what to do about that problem. When set up correctly the gun shot with very little recoil in every load as it should be. Thanks for all your help.

    Glad to hear you got it back together and it’s a good shooter. Enjoy
