On WPSs it is indicating that cap size as: 5-7 or BAB extended.
And the question is; what does BAB extended means?
Thanks.

Now I have a question, cap size 5-7? The only caps I know of are back caps in short medium or long. I have heard nozzles referred to as "cups" and they would be sized in #5 or #7 etc. BAP extension??? I have no clue.

Sorry, typing error. The word is 'cup' of course.

I think the size is diameter in eights, i dont know BAB, but they might be referring to a gas lens

I don't recall seeing the "BAB" designation, but there are long and short cups, at least in some sizes.
