I have several molds that are from lachmiller

Mine are 2 and 3 cavity molds they were made by:

Penguin Industies Inc
Lachmiller division
11273 Goss St
Sun Valley, Calif. 91352

They seem to be the predecessors of RCBS molds but the handles are a little thinner.

The molds I have are great casters and came with the handles, so I don't know if they are available anywhere.

I'm sure you could alter the Lee handles in a pinch.

I hope this helps.

THANKS
