I received a message from Steve today. He doesn’t have the kits in stock but is expecting them soon. He’s building a list of those interested in having him install the conversion and will presumably notify us when the kits arrive from TL. Uj

Custom fitting of this kit by Steve is a good idea. I have two TX200s of approximately the same vintage - the kit fit one perfectly while in the second there is slightly too little clearance in the headspace. Just goes to show you that there is enough variance in manufacturing tolerances from one rifle to the next which may require modification of each kit to get a perfect fit.

Those are nice kits. I have two of Tony's old ones. Huge difference in recoil behavior compared to other tune kits. Well worth the price.
I hear Tony made some changes to the new kits. Mainly to address some of the thermal expansion issues.
I'm assuming that we need to mail our action to Steve for proper installation.
I've seen Steve's work. I wouldn't mind paying extra for expert installation.

The new kits are no longer skirt-less. They are still light but the portion where the skirt would be in a regular setup has been replaced with a black polymer. It has reduced the heat expansion issue and keeps the piston better centered in the comp tube.

As Uglyjohn mentioned, I do not have kits in stock yet. As soon as Tony and I work out details for some reliable shipping from UK to US, kits will be on the way.
In the meantime, if you are interested in a 22mm kit, just drop me an email or PM and I will put your name on the list.
