Default Cast On/Off

I have looked at the photo and compared it to the Parker made Try-gun and I don't see where there is any adjustment possible on the Curtis for cast on/off.
Is there?

I have never used them, but I think two screws allow the top part of the stock to be moved right and left.

Bill- can you bring your Curtis Try-Gun to the Annual Meeting? If you will. I will bring my Parker Try-Gun as well.

Just a reminder to bring your try-gun. I can't wait to see it.

The Curtis gun is in the car, as we speak. Tables B-4 and B-5. I hope to see Dean with his camera Saturday, or maybe Friday.

I'll be there Saturday for certain. Cameras are allowed in the show, right?

Dean,

Looking forward to all of your Parker Try-Gun photos posted here.

I know you have a good eye for detail. Should be very interesting.

Best, Chris ~ CSL

Thanks Chris.
I'll take the pictures but I'm doing it primarily for George Purtill's upcoming Parker Pages article and so as not to preempt his article I'll defer to George's wishes about which pictures to post up here on the forum or when to post then.

Again, Thanks
Dean
