45root Could you please give some info on what, where to get better bottom (and top) insulators?

these look like they would work better for the top insulator but I dont really need any yet.

I only use these on the bottom. I use the stock ones on the top. The ones I have do not hold the pin steady at the top. There is too much play. They work perfect on the bottom though. They also work on the aga-s, chobra and did clones with a little trimming.
This is just what I used. buy and use these at your own risk.
