Morning all,
I have recently made up an Empress FP and noticed that the Bling Ring on the pen cap is loose. The pen cap barrel was of the correct length and the clip assembly was seated fine.

But despite pressing home the bottom of the pen cap assembly you are able to spin the bling ring.

Don't know whether what I am saying makes any sense am I doing something wrong or should it spin on the pen cap?

:thinks:Vic:thinks:
