.306 .308 double bullet pens
Some double bullet pens I finished today ,just the powdercoating and assembly
using a .306 and .308 a sierra connector with a cigar activator, allows me to use a parker refill and only have to tap the nib end for the unit to screw together , a bit fiddly but ends up an all metal pen and nicely balanced ,I also turn the activator larger dia down to the same size as the rest of it,that way I don't need a centreband and the cap fits all the way up to the nib end , I press a 25mm length of 8mm tube into the cap end to act as a driver for the activater , a short length of 7 mm tube on the cap holds the clip and then only a small gap so epoxied in the end , as I said a bit fiddly but a nice pen in the end cheers ~ John
G'day all !Enjoy your stay !!!
