    I bought a couple of G2 mechanical pencils today with the intent to make a few RSVG2's. But it's not obvious whether there's any good way to get an insert inside the barrel.

    Does anybody know a way?

    Why is that?

    These should work just as well. I just want to put an insert in.

    ... RSVG2's are made with the G2 pen, not mechanical pencil... You could use the G2 MP for MP MX's...

    Okay, you guys are no help and you're wrong. There is no reason you can't build an RSVG2 from a mechanical pencil. Do you even know what an RSVG2 is?

    You can probably get an insert in, although it's going to be very difficult.

    Okay, this is getting dumb...

    I've made an RSVG2 with a mechanical pencil. It's possible.


    But I just want to know if you can get an insert in the barrel.

    Yes, they are right.

    You can not build a RSVG2 with a G2 mechanical pencil because the bodies are different.


    Yes you can.

    I don't think it's possible to get an insert in there though, considering the way its made.

    Guys, come on.

    The RSVG2 is a mod made by sawing the top of an RSVP cap, just below the ball, and stacking G2 clicker pieces in it so as to extend the retractable mechanism and balance the weight of the grip in front. It WILL work with a mechanical pencil.

    The mod that probably cannot be made with a mech. pencil G2 is the RG2T, made by Aries.

    The names are similar, but the mods are very different.

    And you should be able to slip an insert into the G2 barrel for the RSVG2.
