Very competitive prices for this kit Alex. What a revolution made in your own country . Thanks for showing two of these pens. Strong, well made and look great open for use.

It is good British engineering at its finest
Yes they are made in the UK to very high standards from high-grade steel
This looks a fine pen Alex
They are a sliding fit in the tubes
Is there any other kind?
What I was trying to get at is what the tolerance will be, loose, tight, absolutely spot on or something else?

Great looking pen Alex.
Good to see you still have some things British made.
Welcome back to the forum.

Welcome back to the forum.
they are a sliding fit so they are not a loose and not tight fit
All bushes are a sliding fit, but that doesn't mean they are not a loose or tight fit, I have 3 sets of bushes for the alpha and they are loose to the extent of being useless. I wondered if the bushes for this new pen would be as good a fit as the bushes for the Mistral and the Tempest, I suppose time will tell.
