A copper host sounds great!

Paypal for $90 on way as we speak.
Many thanks

Thank you 😱First class job
I have your host on stock, and should be able to work on it this weekend 😀Can't wait to see mine 🙂
You are welcome. Thanks for letting me know the host arrived safely 😉Will,
Just a quick message to let you know that the Mag host arrived safely today.
Threads are just as clean as they look in the pictures, and the cap screws in very smoothly - really high quality work.
Thanks again.

Cut tube to length - extra short since we are doing the tailcap mod:

Internal boring for 4xAA battery adapter:

The spring seats about 0.6" deeper into the tailcap, which allows the main tube/body to be shorter:

All done:

Here is yours in the middle, with 4 more hosts available for immediate sale, all cut extra short for use with 3xAA or 4xAA adapters, and with the body grooved:
