Fisher Shuttle Space Pen

[AndyYNWA]

Even though I love my fountain pens, I don't really like bringing them with me on business trips, especially not if I'm flying.

 

I have been looking at the orignal model, AG7, but I think it's a bit too expensive for me (it's a ballpoint). I have also had my eyes on the Bullet model because of the price (however it looks quite cool as well), but I would like a capless version. Now I found the Shuttle model, which is much cheaper at domestic web shop than the AG7, almost as cheap as the Bullet.

 

The web shop has two versions of the Shuttle model to choose from:

CH4

and

 

B4

Anyone who have tried both these models and can tell pros and cons? Grip, finish, etc..

 

Also, the point sizes. Medium or fine? How do they compare to fountain pens in line widths?

I have a very early model AG7 which I dont use, if you wanted an old one.

If it's working properly...

It works fine, not as new but works fine, just going to play Billiards, will take some pics and PM in about an hour.

Just ordered a B4. Hope it will live up to my expectations...
