Whatever guy   ::) I took the time to get you a picture and told you what it is. If calling the plastic collar aluminum makes you feel better about your purchase and return, call it what you need to :whistle: hopefully you find something that suits your needs

I meant no offense. In the picture it just looked like aluminum with a coating.

If it’s the plastic/composite like the cutting head is made from that the blades are mounted to…I’d think it add more support then a guy thinks….that stuff is pretty tuff.

Thank you for the picture.

Acme had $209, didn’t check shipping. I still think if you wait they will be down by when you need it. Mine was $129 or $149 (?) right after Thanksgiving at Fleet.

Well…When I returned my jiffy torch, I didn’t have the receipt so I ended up with a gift card to fleet…….they didn’t have a pistol bit in…..and they didn’t have them online…..🤞🏻They come in and are on sale for $150

It's all good just was a little frustrated I had  taken the time to take the darn thing apart again for a pic to be told it was aluminum   ;D

the Pistol was $150? Amazing the profit there must be.

I haven't seen any Mills flyer with that price ($150) or the Pistol Bit advertised by Mills ..they have a handful of flyers from now till Black Friday posted  able to be viewed. I believe Agronomist_at_IA is referring to end of last season clearance/sale/reduced price of $150..which was an in-store only price ..with limited availability . This season its MSRP is $229 I have seen it from $229 to $249.

My contact at Marine General said Pistol Bits aren't expected to arrive until mid December.

Yep...this.

Last year I think $199 was the retail price. Multiple places had sales throught the year last year for $150 on the pistol. I'm kicking myself for not picking up the one pistol bit they had for $150 last year on sale......Had it in my hand....put it back....then the next time I was in the store was going to get it but they were all sold out. Hence why I'm holding out trying to find a new one for $150.
