    I've been toying with different handle ideas, like old school knife handles, brass knuckles that sort of thing. Although I probably won't happen until I get back from my deployment.

          Hi Guys,
          Us ex-Brits have a few gaps in our allegedly common language so could someone please define a suicide shifter for me?
          I've a vague memory that it's more than the tank-mounted hand shifter that I first learned to ride on but the details have slipped away over time.

                    I'm with every good comment here, you have a talent for mechanical things. And I am with Mr. Schweer, where are you going to be deployed to? What is your military job? I am sure that everyone here hopes you will not be in harms way. Every good wish to you and your family.
