How do you know if a Kapara is the newer CQI version ...what to look for...what should be the initials on the box?

Dunno if you’re about to buy one or already have it, but DLT directly told me they only have the CQI aversion in stock and someone else in a related thread said their impression is that’s the case at every major online retailer. Seems likely to be but I can personally vouch that DLT is a sure bet.

They added a pivot bushing for a better free dropping close.

Nick Shabazz did a disassembly video of the cqi version. Said it just reinforced it's "gem" status.
