-- The breechings of IX-in. guns are to be so fitted that the face of muzzle when in shall be 18 inches from inner face of side, for two reasons: ❋ United States. Navy Dept. Bureau Of Ordnance (N/A)

The degree of strain on breechings of weather batteries? ❋ United States. Navy Dept. Bureau Of Ordnance (N/A)

Thus fitted, when the gun is run in and levelled, breechings must be long enough to allow the muzzle of the gun to come a foot inside of the upper port-sill, if the breadth of the vessel will allow it. ❋ United States. Navy Dept. Bureau Of Ordnance (N/A)

In fitting breechings, a thimble is to be spliced into one end, the strands stuck through twice, and marled down. ❋ United States. Navy Dept. Bureau Of Ordnance (N/A)

Of these articles the worm, scraper, sponge, and spare breechings [3] are to be becketed up between the beams and carlings on the gun-decks as far as practicable, and those which cannot be so placed will be kept at hand in the storeroom or other convenient place. ❋ United States.

There was a moment in which hoarse cries from many voices, a heavy thud and rumble on wood, and a crash of timbers and a gurgle and a splash were indescribably mingled; the gun under which Abel Keeling had lain had snapped her rotten breechings and plunged down the deck, carrying Bligh's unconscious form with it. ❋ Oliver [pseud.] Onions (1917)

And then he began, quite naturally to unbuckle the breechings and loose the traces, which he did with such deftness and celerity that he had the horse unharnessed and in the stall in a twinkling, and had hauled the buggy through the stable door, the Honourable Hilary watching him the while. ❋ Winston Churchill (1909)

Lucky, reflects the reader, since horses are not good at affixing breechings. ❋ Unknown (1908)

Officers walked up and down the decks, speaking words of encouragement to the men, glancing sharply at primers and breechings to see that all was ready, and ever and anon stooping to peer through the porthole at the line of slowly moving lights that told of the approach of the enemy. ❋ Willis J.

His own men were clustered behind their open ports, matches lighted, tackles and breechings cast off, crowbars, handspikes, and sponge-staves in place, gunners stripped to the waist, powder-boys ready for the word like sprinters on the mark. ❋ Ralph Delahaye Paine (1898)

White canvas lined the breechings of the carronades. ❋ Willis J. Abbot (1898)

Double breechings were rove on the guns, and they were further secured with tackles; and strong cleats nailed behind the trunnions; for we heeled over so much when we lurched, that the guns were wholly supported by the breechings and tackles, and had one of them broken loose it must have burst right through the lee side of the ship, and she must have foundered. ❋ Various (1897)

Ranulph ordered the tackle and breechings cast away, had off the apron, pricked a cartridge, primed, bruised the priming, and covered the vent. ❋ Gilbert Parker (1897)
