the BW200 uses a single pull throttle set up it might be a good swap for the TW conversion

Lead weights is a misnomer. Here in Commiefornia, lead is illegal to use as a fishing weight. They are all steel now. But still an appropriate size with a hole in the middle of a brass or steel bead. I will fray and solder, was thinking lead-free solder. From a mechanical influence point of view, lead-free solder is stronger than lead solder.

I did not know that for CA. I knew lead shot in shotshells had gone to steel in some places but did not know about the lead weights. Learn something new every day is something I try to do and there ya go - You just gave me today's lesson!

Lead bullets are now banned as well for hunting of any sort and from sale within the state and you can't just drive to Nevada and buy it either. Did I mention you have to have an FBI background check every time you buy ammo? EVERY STINKIN' TIME! No, it's not free either. Yes, there's a volume limit of how much ammo you can buy.
While the right to own a gun may be protected by the constitution, it says nothing about the ammo used in said gun. Or the right to do your own reloads. We are, amazingly, still legal to fling our own feces at each other. Ha!

Ya know 40 grains of BP behind a 240 grain bullet travels at about 1100 fps. .45 Colt. 😉

I have always picked up lead car wheel weights if I see them laying in a parking lot. First, I hate trash and second - it's good lead.
What does CA use for car wheel weights or motorcycles for that matter?
