Handles

The tangs aren't long enough....if only they made the tangs an inch or so longer....argch!

I just checked one of my Lee 6 cavity molds and these handles are a no go for them as well. In Buffalo Arms description they claim they will fit Lee 6 cavity molds. The Cabine Tree originals I have do fit all molds but, like I said before, these handles are much lighter and better finished and I think I will like them better. I just wish the tangs were just a bit longer.

I emailed Buffalo Arms about their description that the locking mold handles worked with Lee 6 cavity molds...because they don't. They wrote back and said "woops" and changed the description. They no longer say that. Great, all they would have had to do is lengthen the freakin' tangs by about 1/2".

I don't understand how people can be so short sighted when they make these things. It's a $70.00 pair of mold handles that includes several joints and a means of locking. They thought of everything but what they could fit on. Considering the number of 6 cavity molds that Lee likely sells, you'd think that in designing a pair of mold handles you would make sure that they fit them.

I may do a bit of welding on these and see if I can rectify the situation.
