Ok, I'm just curious, and I'm looking to get confirmation on this one, since I don't have all 3 "kits" to do a side-by-side comparison. But, it seems to me that all 3 of these are the same. Is that correct?

The short answer is yes, the longer answer is that the Baron is available in Titanium gold, but the Navigator is only plated gold.
The Gent Jr is available in several "flavors" The Gent Jr II with the postable cap is the same and available in Titanium gold, but others may be different!
With Craft Supplies check the part numbers carefully!
Hope this helps!
Randy, hate to disagree but the short answer is no.... The baron and the Navagator are the same but the Jr. Gent is a slightly bigger pen with a slight taper on the lower barrel all the bushings are different as are the tubes on the Jr. Gent......
One other thing, I believe the jr. gent is the only one that you can get with threads that match the plating of the rest of the pen. The baron and navigator have the black enamel coated threads.
In Fountain pen there isn't much difference, other than the threads are metal to metal in the Baron, Sedona and Navigator, and metal to plastic which stays shut better in the others.
Sorry for opening up an old wound,, but I had a request to do my first fountain pen. I picked up the Navigator from Woodcraft. Don't have the drill bits so going to get the Junior series mold from ptownsubbie. If I read it right, it can cast all 3 kits.. Navigator/Baron/Jr Gent I and II.Randy, hate to disagree but the short answer is no....

Roy is correct on this one. Baron is closer to the Jr Gent 1 but even there there's a little difference- they use slightly different bushings.Randy, hate to disagree but the short answer is no....
