recently purchased the Helmsman and some of you might have watched the reviews about the switch being a bit crunchy; well i fixed mine and it's perfect now.
unscrewed the bottom switch and took off the locking ring and took a mild file and went around the edge of the bottom of the tube very lightly at about a 45 degree angle a couple of times and put on a mild bevel now she fires without any crunch....i filed a bit then tried it, filed some more until i got it rite....took about 10 minutes or so....just wanted to pass this info on.
