    Breeching up No1's, 4's and 5's I say experience has taught Armourers since the 1900's and certainly since the advent of the No4's, to ignore the gauges and put your trust in the flat plate glass method. That way you don't trust or accept any pre ordained marks, flats etc etc as gospel. As for breeching up against factory set datum lines........ What a farce that is! Just my view based on nothing more than having done one or two
