I bought 10 of these mainly to get the transmissions to use in my 308 cartridge pens so I could use the parker refill instead of the cross.
At $3.99 for the complete kit vs $3.50 for the transmission alone it was a no brainer. I liked the looks of the gun metal grey finish well enough to make a pen from it and see how it lasts.
Apprentice Classica gun metal grey and chrome. A piece of the ash I was going to use for the kitchen until the powder post beetles showed up. CA finish.
I'll give this one the wife to carry around in her purse and use as an everyday user and abuser to see how the finish holds up. If it lasts it will help keep my costs down for the ones I give away.
