Precise ELA Telescoping MOD by Super-T Manufacturing PT 2

[forcedfuel50]

Precise ELA II notable changes:

-Redesigned extension tube locking mechanism, provides an even more secure hold on extension tube
-Button now flush with cap and the cap flats pushed out and widened. Stands up securely with no wobble, even with a tank on it.
-Larger diameter button for more proportioned look and easier activation
-Larger button locking slide for easier button locking activation
-Wider "U" shaped button guard, making it easier to activate button
-Slanted knurl look on lock ring
-Solid Top Cap

We can do Satin, just let me know if you want that on your unit.

Thanks David, I didn't pick one up before they went out of stock. I'll try for next batch maybe.

I should mention, for those who purchased ELA's last week, you are getting the updated version with it's improvements pictured above.

AS far as compatibility of ELA vs ELA II.

The body, locking ring, compression band, button, button slide, button shield are all different and not compatible or swappable between the two.

Accent rings(both top and bottom), top caps, slant caps, adjustable draw caps, extension tubes (both regular and XL), adjustable hybrid post, springs, locking spring plunger and bottom button contact are all interchangeable.

Just consider it the " the classic, original " how long ago did you get yours?

 

[theECB]

I honestly don't recall when I received it. It was pretty early though. I've been using it literally every single day since I received it so that makes it feel like an old friend.

I like the "classic" designation.

Sorry for the noob question but since I will be receiving my first ELA I was wondering what the compression band is for.

Band inside the knurled locking ring. Locking mechanism.

Made of aluminum or brass. Can be replaced. They may wear out over time.

Ah I see. So why would someone choose brass over Aluminum or vice versa?

I have both, and both seem to work fine..... Brass might be more conductive, but they need cleaning more often. THe brass also feel stronger.

 

[kscoggins]

For all practical purposes there's no difference, they just keep the tube secure - like a compression fitting used in plumbing.
I think the brass was just what David had at the time.

Originally, they were only aluminum. We needed some, and he did not have any aluminum available at the time. So he made some brass. I assume they are again being made from aluminum. Just mentioned the brass, just so you know. There are some floating around out there.

ELA classic all the way, I'm all about that knurling...and being able to use a Satburn button.

We'll be making extra locking rings in the classic standard knurling and another style too as well as this slant style and offer them separately too so you can mix and match

 

[forcedfuel50]

Bands in these are brass. They don't fit the old style though, new design.
