    BKL Mounts

    Just a quickie! Got some of these and can't fit them because I only have metric hex wrenches.
    Can anyone tell me what size imperial hex wrench I need as I can get it easily on the bay!
    Cheers

    I have just fitted the same mounts to my hw100 tried metric and imperial with no joy. They are TORX star head on my mounts also they were very tight on the dovetail my mounts have a center threaded hole between the clamp screws. If you use one of the clamp screws in the center hole it will expand the mounts enough to get them on your dovetails.

    Torx

    ..now that would be a bit evil! I'll have a closer look tonight. May have some of the torx bits somewhere if so.

    Ooops

    Just a finale to the story! Yup a torx bit did fit! And just as I was going to fit the mounts I went to chuck the box away and lo and behold - attached inside the fold of the end was - wait for it - a nice little envelope with a hex wrench in it! And that fitted perfectly!
    So null points for me not looking in the first place
