New Accessory -- Exploded diagram for Ejection Charge Baffle
I figured you might want to have this diagram handy if you decide to build the 1.3X EAC Viper design. It might also come in handy if you want to duplicate this idea in other models. Consider this not so much as a final-form design, but as a pattern for how to do something similar in other body tube sizes...
Size shown is for the ST-13 tube...
Be sure to look carefully at the "End View" to see how the inside tubes mesh together. The length of the gas passages causes them to overlap, meaning the gasses have to "zig-zag" around two tight corners to make it through. The hot particles can't move like this...
