Hey Don I still have some old BB1N that I use, the old Lews ones not the ones Browning ruined when they bought them out. Now Lews is making a come back and are starting to make good reels again. I have an old one with the original V spool I have had it since I was 16 years old and it still works and all I have done to it is replace the pawls on the worm gear several times. Now it sounds rough but I still occasionally pick it and sling it.

My very first handle on this site was Lews SS then the site crashed once and I lost it, Peter tried but could never recover it so I went to just my name, I know how original right, lol.
