Thank you! This also shows how the barrel will only go in one way,and the importance of getting the bearing installed in the correct position. ---bil

on this pic (thanks to photoshop) we can see a first patent barrel in a standart barrel bearing

and on this one you can imagine kow was a early pattent barrel bearing....

or perhaps like that...

Dumb question, but that is a top to bottom view? The machined away area is to allow the barrel to pivet outwards to the right, to remove the barrel?

Hi

I found a 1st model barrel bearing (only fits with the 1st model barrel)
the normal pattent is on the left, the early one is on the right

Wow
Thanks for the update.... Now to print and start checking things out. I'll bet I don't have a first model if it took Fab this long to find one.
