But I had the understanding that this problem did not exist originally. Are
you saying then that the new parts are not a perfect match?  And sorry, I
still do not follow the argument that capstan placement would have no
effect. Accerlation rate is related to the let off rail position as well as
to dip. If the let off buttons were previously up quite far, it would
probably have to be modified as you increase dip, right? I did not mean to
imply that you created excessive dip, only that this let off rail would
have been designed for higher strike ratios.


Just trying to understand it myself.
