WTB green barrel and blind cap. Also metal filler unit. It's a TM TD and someone has used a fat filler unit and cracked the barrel at the end in 2 places. The blind cap has teeth marks. The pen has a lovely smooth writing gold nib and deserves a repair if I can get parts.

No promises, but drop me a note next week, when I'm home. I'll look. I do have a couple TD parts pens.

Somebody please straighten me out if I don't know what I'm talking about, but are you sure it's a TM? The only 2 TD Tuckaways I've messed with, one Triumph, one open nib, were both fat Touchdown, like the one shown below with a Snorkel barrel for comparison of the Touchdown-tube diameter. Those early plastics can shrink to the point that you can't move the Touchdown unit.
And if no one has replied yet, I'd be happy to send you the capless Tuckaway shown below.

Matt I assumed cos the fit was so tight and the barrel had split in 2 places that the TD was too fat. I can see from your pen that it is probably correct. I have not heard back yet from David or Rick but if they are looking for a thin tube it will prob be wrong 1. It's the first Tucky I've ever handled.
PM with payment details for your Tucky.
