Which bracket for vision ?

colinicky · 12th January 2006, 15:39

Eventually my inspo vision is of the line & on it's way .The question is which bracket system is best for mounting an Argon bottle on the side of the unit .2 mates of mine have butchered pony slide mounts but in both cases they used the dil camband to hold them in place the only problem being that the catches were behind the argon bottle necesitating the removal of said before unclipping the cover ! these were both on classics so I don't know if the case is drastically different or not ? If the best sort is drilled & bolted is there anything to watch out for or some exact drawings please .

Case is the same on classic and vision.
I use a G-Snap drilled and bolted, doesn't get in the way of the case clips.

I know they do one for the evo but that's a different profile isn't it ?

yes sorry you are correct the profile is different but I thought I was told by AP that it would fit both, maybe I misunderstood them personally I bought G-snaps from Portland oceaneering, the ones with the bolts welded on, jus drill two small holes in the side of the case and bolt em on! if you dont want to drill you can use swop the cylinder bands for cambands and use them to hold the g-snaps in place
