7mm Streamline RT tube length?

[DaveM]

I have some RT 7mm Streamlines being shipped to me right now. I would like to get some blanks glued up ahead of time, as they are for a rush order. Is the short tube the same as the slimline/flattop streamline tube? I have plenty of those, and also plenty of European tubes. Does anybody know offhand how much I would have to trim off of the Euro tubes to match the long tubes? I could probably just glue up some Euro blanks, and then hack them to length when the kits arrive, but it would be nice to start with the right sized parts.

I know, being a slimline style kit, I can make them to any length I want practically, but I would like to turn a few as designed, especially for this customer.

Thanks in advance
Dave

Dave the Streamline uses Slimline tubes, both tubes are the same length.

Dave,

The upper barrel appears to be 2.09" and the lower, longer barrel is 2.207" for the round top streamline.

Thank you very much for the help. That's what I needed. I will glue some up right now, and hopefully have happy customers this weekend.

Thanks again,
Dave
