Yes, as crazy as it sounds I’m looking for one of those Pakistani made, Kirk Lynch rip-off style drone tie in cups. 
Does anybody have one lying around that they’d like to part with?
The reason is I am experimenting with mainstock placement on a new set in order to position the regulators to my liking and figured this would be a cheap way to explore options.

If you have access to a lathe you could turn the wooden part and use a section of PVC pipe instead of the brass.
No I don’t have access to a lathe.
I tried my new stock out in my Lynch tie in cup and it is an exact fit and the length is very close to what I need. The Mid east cups are taken from Lynch dimensions so I’m hoping that will save me the effort. If it works then it works, but if the length is off then I don’t mind cutting the brass to experiment.
So…if anyone out there has one…
YES! I believe I have one for you, …
Please, double check the I.D. dimension ( that’ll give me time to locate it…)
PM as needed!
OK. CHasR doesn’t have one after all.
If anyone else out there would like to share let me know!

Give Mid-East a call, often they have junker instruments lying around and would likely sell you that part.
