Zebra F-701 All Steel Retractable Ballpoint Pen. Can It Handle G2 Refills?

I know it's not a fountain pen. However, my EDC pen is a Pilot G2 limited with either cross ink/signo ink/G2 ink, or sarasa ink. I was thinking about going with a Zebra F-701 as my everyday carry. Can anyone who owns a F-701 tell me if a typical G2 refill (or signo or any of the ones I listed above) will fit into the F-701 pen?

 

 

I would go buy and test one myself but can't seem to find them anywhere but online. Figured someone on here may own 1 and take the time to test it out for me. Look forward to hearing back. Thanks so much!

No experience with those, but the G-2 refill fits my Waterman Hemisphere RB perfectly.

Hi,

 

The refills that the Zebra F-701 uses, unlike the Sarasa refills, are actually quite a bit smaller than the G2 and are a bit shorter, so they don't fit. I hope that helps!
