Just got back from a 3,000 mile trip over some very rough roads (US412 in Oklahoma/ Bridge transitions in Colorado, New Mexico, South Dakota, Iowa, Missouri, & Wyoming). I always use the 1/2 hole covered target for the front FastGuns and a little less tension for the rear ones. The TC was kept in position very well. On a couple of the bridge transitions, I thought the truck went airborne.
I use a little anti-seize on the Stainless Steel threads.
I believe the new handles would be better than the current ones. On a couple occasions when releasing the FastGuns, the tension release and snap back can catch your fingers. It didn't take but a couple times before I decided to not put three fingers inside the handle when releasing.
I might need to take a hacksaw to my current set of FastGuns.
Excellent point about the handles and snap back issue. You have to be very careful not to get your fingers caught up in them.
