Jr Emperor vs. Jr. Gent

[hebertjo]

I have yet to purchase a Jr. Emperor kit and I was wondering if the tubes are the same as the Jr. Gent/Jr. Statesman. I see on CSUSA that the same drill bit size is recommended but the extra tubes have different SKUs so I am guessing they are slightly.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks,

The new tube sets I have measure slightly different in length only.
The larger tube (upper ) for the Jr Emperor is approximately .040
shorter than the Jr Gent II upper tube.
Other than that, they are the same.

Thanks for measuring. I bought some pre-tubed blanks that we labeled Jr. Emperor and I was wanting to use them with a Jr. Gent.

You should be able to do that. The length can be shortened some without affecting anything.
