Note:
Though not specifically designed for such use, the MK 41V capsule can also be
used on the RC Active Tube or the variable angle joint GVC; when fully tight-
ened it will rarely be aimed where you intend. On request we will supply an
elastic ring which can be slipped over the threads of the RC or GVC so that
the final turn of the capsule will place it at the desired angle of rotation.
This ring must be kept out of the capsule threads, however.
