There have been quite a few problems reported with the threads in Jr. Statesman II and the Jr. Gent II. I have not read anything to indicvate that the problem has been corrected yet. I would be very carefull about selling these pens!!
This problem has been solved... I spoke to Nils the other day and they are starting to get in the replacement parts for the JrGent/Jr Statesman II pens... all you need to do is call and they will be sent to you.. that is the way I understand it...
As for Randy's statement.. There was a problem reported by Rich K, and it was a problem... on the original release of this kit, they attempted to correct the problem of intermittent threading that was found on the Jr Gent I. In the course of doing so, they actually made the threads a bit on the loose side and it could cause a cross threading issue if the customer was not careful putting the cap in place.. it only seemed to happen if the cap was tilted when replacing it... if the cap was held straight, no cross threading..
What has been done is a re-design of the cap section that forced the bottom barrel to align when being replaced..
I think that CSU, as usual, has done a fine job of taking care of a problem reported by their customers in a more than timely manner.
