need dimensions for 26.5mm Flare

[jjwelin]

want to build an adapter to fire 12 gauge FLARES from my 26.5mm flare gun.

Does anyone have the 26.5mm flare dimensions???

also could use the 12 guage chamber dimensions...

Thanks!

I don't know about yours but my 2 run about 1.049" measured at the breech (don't have a bore gauge, it's a Hebel), the other (CZ) runs about 1.050" at the breech or thereabouts. You might want to measure it with a calipers unless you've already done that. Oh, thats the bore size. I don't quite recall what the rim size is. Calipers are good.

any chance you could find a rim size for me????

And an overall length of the flare??

Pretty please???

Fired case length: 3.135"

Rim size as measured off the breech of a Cz flare gun: 1.223"

Rim depth, same gun: .097"

Bore size measured just now: 1.056"

Please note that tolerances vary, so your's might not be the same size.

As for the depth of the chamber, there isn't one per se on my gun, it's all chamber.
