How 'bout a special thrust ring that'll work w/slimline retainers?
Or maybe making all your hardware compatible with Slimlines without mods/accessories...like EVERY other mfg. seems to have been able to do? I'd think it'd be as easy as machinging a 2nd thrust-ring groove closer to the aft end of the tube
Honestly, this is why I haven't looked into your stuff. Slimlines have the best features/variety in slim retainers (large/grooved gluing surfaces, choice of rings vs. threaded....two different kind of machined/intetraged tailcone versions, etc.). I have them, I like them.
AT, Cesaroni, Ellis Mtn., Loki...everyone but you & Kosdon (who doesn't currenly make/market hardware, I believe) seems to have stuck to and/or created an "industry standard'.
Seems kinda silly to sacrifice a relatively large group of potential clients because you don't wanna adopt the same format everyone else uses...EXPECIALLY since the changes you'd need to make would be so minor & wouldn't affect your hardware's efficacy in other retainers.
There's no downside, so what's your holdup?
