I have a pretty technical question on the 16" 50cal HC projectile.
On the HC projectile, if it has a nose fuse (or a steel nose cap) screwed into the adapter, when the protective nose cover is removed, are the protective nose cover threads on the adapter left exposed? It would appear that this would disrupt the smooth taper from the point down onto the shell. I just can't figure out how it all fits together and keeps things smooth. Is the protective cover taken off and then the nose fuse installed? That doesn't really make sense. But if the fuse is installed and then the cover installed over it, how are the threads covered when the cover is taken off.
And NO, I can't repeat that question because I have totally confused myself HA
Thanks for any help (picture of a real shell nose would be of great help)
