Sage 5 G-10;Ti scales?

#1

Post by Springfield1903 »

Hi folks,
I'm inept and can't find a set of Ti scales (in the US) to fit (with certainty) a Sage 5 Rex121 G-10 (not Featherweight).

I contacted flytanium. As I understand their response, they only offer a lightweight/featherweight ti scale set and are not sure this will fit the regular or G-10 model of the Sage 5.

Anyone know for sure if they will fit?

Or perhaps, another supplier?

Thnx in advance for any ideas and your time.

There seems to be enough variance among the different Sage 5 offerings that I see a lot of aftermarket scale makers put disclaimers about fitment. Mostly regarding the Salts and coated liners, worries about the thickness of coatings and things.
One I recall seeing recently was from Parsons, and they said in a disclaimer that it will not fit most Salts. But, then a number of members on a fbook page bought them and mounted them perfectly to the Salt Sage 5, so who knows.

RGT also has a disclaimer concerning clip placement. Definitely need to know what model you have to make a switch . I believe the newer models are good to go . Dan
