Dave-G Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) They do indeed look great - could do with clarifying how they are fitted though. I'd imagine Colins 501b handle is held in with the torch head screwed on from inside the box. Edited June 10, 2015 by Dave-G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swampyis1968 Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 Drill a 30 mm hole (cone drill) will do it and it has I think a nut that tightens it up to the handle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine Colins 501b handle is held in with the torch head screwed on from inside the box. spot on Dave though the 501 head on the inside has been cut back with hacksaw cut about 12mm off so there is about 8mm ring on the inside seems to be holding well just the one miss hap i pulled the small centre spring off but with the advise from yourself via pm's it's all sorted and running well, just got a few modification's to do to scope add on then i shall post pic's colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
