Question about a Langley Target

Post by **john elder** » Sun Jan 22, 2006 7:15 pm

I finally found one of these reels...even here in San Diego where they originated, dollars to donuts if you find a Langley, it will be one of the other more common ones. At any rate, I had the money out of my wallet, when i realized that both the oil caps were missing! Having been thru this before, I just decided to put it back and walk away...not mint...had some boat rash..25-ish. Was I right about those caps or should I have dragged it home?

cool-thumb jump yay-banana jump USA John, You are in luck! Your reel shows that it takes a adj cap on the Handle side and a Fixed one on the tail plate part #s (DD) fixed side fits all, lanlys frome the 310 330 and 340 your reel, the Adj cap asembly also fits the 310, 330 and 340 target series The adj cap uses cap cc,a spool cap adj. , and ee 2 of thes, ff felt pad, and v a snap ring! These reels are from the 1954 era thru 1955. they made 2 styes of the 340 Target the service reel Kb 171, and the service no. KC -171c Anyway If I was going to buy it I would offer $ 16.00 and it would have to be as NEW before I would go over $22.00) The parts are MON. email me I will give you the cost! You have my emai; address! Your Ohio Conection on Lake erie Col. Milton Lorens aka SWIM JIG !
