Title: 6500 CS MAG Handle options
Post by: boon on April 10, 2016, 07:38:54 PM
I scored a bucket of reels with issues over the weekend.

One of them is a 6500 CS MAG, issues were a seized spool bearing and misassembled clutch/AR, and the handle is missing.
I've sorted the first 2 issues but now I need a handle!

There's the obvious option on EBay/Amazon, cost is $20US for the power handle which isn't too bad, but I was just wondering if there are any easy/effective alternative options out there?

If you check with ABU parts they have the power handle for about, $14.
