Question about the plunger on the No1Mk3 (and: another refurbed)
Hi everyone,
While I refurbed this rifle: Refurbed No1Mk3* - Military Surplus Collectors Forums
A question occurred to me. On the No1Mk3, in the forend near the muzzle, there is a plunger with a spring. This plunger rests on the nose cap, and pushes upwards on the barrel. Doesn't this tend to make the barrel muzzle "want" to contact the top side of the hole through which it protrudes aat the front of the nose cap? I can't figure out the dynamics involved.
