So what I gather from this post and also Bill Barber's post is that the MD cap
should not have fit my 2SP and I shouldn't try to cram it on there, and that
the cap is fine for my 1-MD? Forgive me if I'm being obtuse, I'm just
confused.

p.s. if this is true, anyone want to purchase like new Beljan MD cap, in chrome
??? Trade for a 2sp MD cap???
