US Tube Makers

I haven't checked in a while. Are there any companies in the US that can provide collars / tube sets? I have a 5.4 Searider, and finally have the money for a refit. Just not the money for tubes and international shipping.

Don't know whether these are still available, or whether your Searider is a military spec, but might be well worth your while investigating?

Hi, These are still available and I'm sure that they can be shipped to the US, they will fit a standard Searider too

Thanks everyone. I have offered to purchase the Henshaw tubes, but if that falls through I am definitely interested in the Tilly as well. I'll keep you posted.
