WTB: Maurilew Powder drain
« on: January 15, 2023, 05:09:24 pm »
I've tried to contact Maurilew to purchase a drain but haven't gotten a response so I think he must not produce them anymore. 

If anyone has a Maurilew powder drain they'd sell please contact me.  Thanks!

(Edited to added that Mr. Lewis passed away recently.)

Just an FYI

He was last on this StarReloaders forum in May of 2021.
Not a good sign. Hope all is well.

Yeah and no email replies.  Not a great sign.  His work looks great.

Last time I talked to him he was in his 90's and still going strong, but that was a while ago.

I do have a couple of his units. available.    Star slightly changed their powder slide housings over the years and the Maurilew powder drains do not fit all powder slide housings.
