Hinderer standoffs on a zt 560 will it work

[PURPLEDC]

the xm-18 standoffs and hardware will work...however....as was mentioned...you do have to file the handle nuts to fit as they are too long for the 560...and the standoffs for the xm-18 is .195 in width...the standoffs for the 560 is .205...so thats a full .010 thicker...so they may not be the perfect solution to a ti standoff...but...i am considering making a run of the 560 standoffs in titanium so you all can customize your 560's with titanium standoffs using the original 560 hardware! What do you think?

Like said previously, if you make some for the 55x, I'm all over this. Please Rick!!!!! Oh and some clip colors too to match would be awesome. Annnd even a titanium liner for the Scale side would be awesome too.

Perhaps I just got carried away? Lol

 

[Hobo with a Rolex]

any update on this?

 

[Rolex John]

Would love to see some 0550/1 stand offs too....

 

[Rhind64]

Thanks Rick. Hopefully they are all released around the same time and I can get them for the XM, 550, and 560 in one fell swoop.

Awesome Rick! Keep us updated, I would love to get some for my new 561 and I am still saving up for the XM-18.

 

[GLOCKCRAZZ]

looking forward to a set for the 560.

 

[dark impaler]

sweet.

I'm in, one set for each.. 55X and 56X, I have all for versions just want to "Mod" one of each series.
Keep us updated Rick

Yes Rick, I would be very much interested in some of those Ti standoffs.

 

[Manix07]

Count me in for the 560.

 

[simplespeed]

Cant wait to get some for my 551!

 

[NM08SRT8]

Cant wait to get some for my 551!

This!!

 

[myemptymind]

Im in too, looking for a set for my 0560

As sick as Ti standoffs made specifically for the 55x and 56x will be, I'm more interested in scales! I love the DE scale on my new 561, but want to be able to digicam it up when I'm in the woods, and make her orange when I go hunting, and carbon fiber when I'm on my space ship, etc.

 

[myemptymind]

Im in for scales too!!

 

[GuinnessSynd]

count me in for the 550 set

Got an e-mail from Rob at Hinderer Knives this morning. "We are going to offer ti upgrades for those, but I do not have a lead time" & "We are going to make 0560 scales, however I don't have a lead time"
Sooo, they are in the works!!!!!

 

[redpoint]

If they would fit a 551 then im in.

I've seen pics of XM18 hardware [stand-offs and fasteners] on a ZT 0550/0551 - probably on the Hinderer Forum on BF. It was a perfect fit [fully flush]. Take a look over there and see if you can find the thread [maybe a Google image search might locate it]. It was either here [ZT] or over at the above. I've never understood why ZT uses those black, pan head fasteners. A nice flush mount bright stainless wouldn't cost anymore and would really "finish" their beautiful products. I'm going to switch-out my ZT 0550 hardware for some XM18 when I get a chance.
