I’m sorry to have put everyone on a little waiting period, but this will be the last batch of photos for a few days. With work and the IWA Show in Germany, I won’t be able to select, crop, edit and post more images before March 7th. Despite my amateur efforts, I’ll do my best to make sure it will be worth the wait. I might be able to chime in on the forums, but more pictures will follow on March 7th. Thanks for watching!

Wow! The Caly 3 HAP40 and RN Chap look great! The Caly is a must for me. I wasn't sure I "needed" the new Chap since I already have a CF Chap but those pics are changing my mind!

Thanks Mr. Blonde for the great thread. Waiting anxiously for your subsequent posts. Any news on the compression lock Lil' Native discussed at last year's Amsterdam Meet?

What? No more? Usually he posts a lot of pictures over a few consecutive days.
