Big, fat, short screws. Strange shaped nuts. Weird heads on some of the screws or thread sizes with no matching nuts. It looked to me to be out of some manufacturer's unsold stock barrel. So I recommend caution. If you can examine and return the kit if not satisfied, that should be be safe. -- /"""\ Jeffrey Mattox, Heurikon Corp, Madison, WI |O.O| {harpo, hao, philabs}!seismo!uwvax!heurikon!jeff (news & mail) \_=_/ ihnp4!heurikon!jeff (mail - fast)
