Be really gratefull if someone could advise on what I need to get gardiner pole to go into van mount/8mm minibore as well as the backpack. Got those fittigs in pic from wintecs - coupler 8mm steel hosetail with 6mm steel hosetail-pole connector but dont know what need to connect into the fitting that came with pole. Wintecs were good, but I think they gave up on it as I sent them pic and they didnt get back. I tried explaining what I wanted but this **** just dont seem straightforward. Is there a simple adaptor or whatever so I can swap pole over from backpack to van mount easy? Pulling my hair out badly and think I will need a drink :1f635:
