Any updates on the Jr. Gent II/Statesman II's?

[JimGo]

I need to place an order with CSUSA for a collet chuck and thought I'd get some kits while I'm at it (save on shipping). Does anyone have any updates on when the new threads will be shipping?

Waiting to hear, any day is the word. The Jr.Gent Black Ti has the corrected threads. The others are on the slow boat from China. []

I made a few of the black Ti kits and really like the way they look and feel. A bit bigger than the size of the Baron, but not so big that it wouldn't fit in your pocket.

Oh, so CSUSA uses the same shipping people that Harbor Freight uses? [] (sorry Nils, couldn't resist!)

Didn't CSUSA go to a weight based shipping cost?

I just placed an 11 kit order through Dustin at CSUSA today, next day ship for an order I need to have done next Wednesday. I had specified the new Jr StatesmanII because I have had a problem with two Jr Gent fountain pens I have that are the old style. I will let you know tomorrow what arrives.

Order arrived, all have new thread style.

You'll still get the Jr. Gent II but that doesn't mean that you'll recieve the new threads. They have been selling the II's for quite a while and some people have been making them with a fix that Rich K. came up with.
