  • The struggle was worth it. 104" of paracord is included with the kit - in case you want to change colors.

    I'm late to the X6100 party, having just picked up a b-stock unit at an absurdly low price. I bought the same rails/handle kit and just installed them both. Damn it, braiding that handle is NOT easy! Despite your guidance, I struggled all the way through it, right to the end! I was almost done, then noticed a botched stick 1/3 of the way in. Of course I had to reverse my work to go back and fix it. I'm loving the rails and handle though, I'm not nearly as worried about dropping this impressive but quirky little radio.
