The principal causes of erosion in the gun-barrel bore are cracks and the deterioration caused by the action of the gun-powder gas, as well as abrasion due to projectiles passing through. The author investigated microspically and by X-rays the cracks and the characteristic-layer on the eroded surface of the bore. It was ascertained that the characteristic layer has a structure which has become martensitic due to the heating effect of the gun-powder gas. At the instant of discharge, the barrel, expands and contracts, and also the hard layer itse'f does so due to the heating effect of the gun-powder gas, so that innumerable number of cracks occurs on that layer by repetition of such actions. The gun-powder gas penetrates through these cracks and accelerates the erosion. Thus it was concluded that the action of the gun-powder gas is the fatal cause of the deformation of the bore by erosion.
