Hi does anyone know if the current version 24-130vis handle assembly will work on an older 130ST reel?

Hey Chris, if no one answers, you might be able to cipher it out on the Mystic Parts handle options tab.

Are you going to Heaver Demo Day?

I checked- It doesn't look like it cross-references to the VIS or VS Handles. Holy crap, the VISX handle is $198 bucks! Not sure what you're looking to do, but they do have the knob assembly so you could perhaps drill out a 130ST blade and upgrade the grip. I only have up to 80T's, so I'm theoretical here, but looking at the pics I'm not sure the swale / boss on the modern handle is the same as the old one and could be the reason they don't interchange, if it doesn't fit the shift housing.

Thanks John. I talked to Mo at Mystic. It definitely wont fit.

Google Luke's Reel Repair in Maine and give him a call.  He makes custom parts for older PENN 130's, including handles at one time as well.
