									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The threaded end cap I made was for a Condor with the long barrel, so the threads had to be pretty large and the shroud threads cut to match.   I tried to tell my customer it would really effect venting to the frame of the gun but he did not care, he wanted his shroud so he could unscrew it, your wish is my command, Neil.</p>

It had a cap to screw onto the threads and hide them when he did not want the shroud on it, Neil.</p>
