Here is one installed in a Knight BP...



I probably have 100 shots on this stainless washer now and it shows no signs of wear - actually it is really hard to tell if the washere is in there or not...
Nice Tip Mike, Im gonna have to see if I can find some of them (Heat-HP-O-Rings). They'll probably last a-lot longer and hold up to the heat much better.
