It is unfortunate that the reason why I am asking this question is, in part, due to the passing of Chauncey Toombs of Cooper T. I am trying to figure out how to get a 45° Tank Receiver, like those used on the Montneel Mega-Z. Are there dealers of Cooper T products, or other alternatives?

I mean no disrespect by this, of course, I am just curious what I can do now.

According to the e-mail sent to subscribers you can still get parts from his son while the stock lasts.

What is the best way to do this? Through the website?

For years I tried to get a hold of him to get some shim kits for my 45° adapter. In hind site its clear now why he never responded, which makes me feel even guilty for bothering him in the first place.

I took B's suggestion, and made shims by cutting circles out of a coke can, and that worked perfectly, except I then realized I didn't like using the 45° adapter since it got in the way of my stock.

Anyway, an alternative are those automag 15° adapters. THe ones that face forward (a trend that LOOKS AWEFUL). Anyway, automag vert adapters are pretty easy to adapt to the montneel, and you could simply hook it up in reverse. That MIGHT work, though I don't know if it will clear the grip in that configuration.

Here is an example:

I would assume you'd be able to get them through the site. Im sure it would'nt hurt to call or e-mail them.
