Title: Clips To Mount CMRs On Body
Post by: jdwtyl on January 17, 2012, 09:51:56 AM: I just picked up a CMR/Tinybox setup and was looking for some clips to mount them to myself for when I need to go 007. Does anyone have suggestions on what might fit the CMRs??

Thanks.

Post by: hi and lo on January 17, 2012, 12:05:07 PM: 007 topics have already been covered publicly in-depth, even when this info should remain out of the public domain. I will send you a PM with some suggestions, but you should be searching on this topic a bit and we should not hash it out in this thread.

I'm psyched because I HATE how fragile the SGC's are :P ;D

Me too, Bean. The SGC-M's are marginally better (love the metal jaws and thumb-screws) but still have the damned plastic, threaded base that splits/cracks very easily. If the SGC-M's had a metal base they would easily be the ultimate clip for Schempz actives...
