The last LHO we produced between2009 and 2014 went for $225 and I was hoping to keep this one somewhat less, but because we're now using high tensile steel this time, machining time increases and changes of bits also increase. I don't want to have to send these off to Seattle for Rockwell hardening. By the time we got them back the process including shipping actually hurt us financially.

I know that after running the complete program, adding knobs, screws and bluing we are going to be at least at the old figure. It could increase from 5 to 8 dollars, but we're not sure yet. If the new nitride treatment works better than bluing, then it will reduce the cost just a bit, but this is my best shot, gents. It's been six years coming and I truly am keeping it as tight as I can. Cross your fingers, because I'm crossing everything I have.

The first 125 0p-rods we brought in from Switzerlandicon were welded to the bridge. I brought in a new batch two years ago anticipating reactivating the LH0 program but when we thought about it for a while we realized that it was eventually going to be a dead end, that is the primary reason for the new design and this new one can switch rather quickly between rifles without involving anyone's op-rod. Week the last group of op rods on our webpage for sale as an individual item. Sooner or later there will be no more.

Now, for you G 11 series owners. Were going to try it tomorrow afternoon, but I have a sneaking suspicion this might work for the G 11 and if it was the perfect fit it would only take a minor modification. I will let you know.
The profiles of the Screws that you're seeing will be shorter and less prominent in the finished piece,
