	Very nice and below is the conversion kits that I used to sell for the Simmons tools. It would also accept the use of large or small primers and all of standard shell holders as well.

	It's not a Simmons tool, at least not like mine. Since it accepts std. shell holders it must be another maker's version.

	It looks as though the main body may be a one piece brass or bronze casting. Did Allen’s Foundry (Pete Allen) ever do brass or did he do steel only? It sure looks like somebody had a great idea to make the old “Pope Style” re- and de- more versatile. The arms are different from any I’ve seen with the extra machining, apparently for appearance sake only. It definitely would be a desirable tool to own. Froggie

	It kind of looks like a Meacham Tool but not quite. That head has a lot of similarities with my Dave Arawinko Peterson tool. Anybody know if Dave made Pope tools? 40 Rod

	This is a Simmons tool I had Jerry Cleave repair for me. Jerry made a new decapping rod to replace the defective rod that was on it. (You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links)

	What you have there is a Pope decapper.
