Getting a pinky rest onto a pair of BD Cobras ???

[gobriango]

Has anyone been able to get a pinky rest onto a pair of Black Diamond Cobras ??? I saw a guy with a perfect plastic pinky rest on his, that he said he got from pair of Vipers. When I tried it out in a store it wouldnt fit no matter what I did.

My buddy did this. He cut some stuff off the bottom of the cobras to get the Viper thing to fit. It seems to work well. I didn't see the cutting process so I have no idea if it affects (sic?) the structural mumbo jumbo.

I met a guy who made the fangs work on his cobras. He took a small rat tail file (or something similar) and filled away the inside parts of the fang. There are places on the fang that get caught up on the cobra spike. You need to file away those spots. If you study the fang close enough, it is apparent.

 

With that, I haven't done it so I may be full of whatever. It looked pretty strong. I woudl suggest you buy one fang then try it out.
