BL Millennium...?

[DocsMachine]

In the video I posted about making parts for detents, a viewer asked if they'd fit a Bob Long Millennium. And I don't know. It's been years since I had a Millennium in the shop, and I don't really recall specifics about the detent. I know some of them had Spyder style nubbins with little metal covers, and others used screw -in 'Cocker style. On the latter, will a 'Cocker detent fit? Or were they proprietary to the Millenniums?

I'm curious as well. I was always told it was a spyder body replacement kit and everything just bolted on but if they came with their own detents I could see that being a change

Looking at pics in an image search, I see both- the Spyder style plate and the hex-head like a 'Cocker. Haven't found a definitive yes-or-no on whether a 'Cocker will fit, though.

The one I had used regular autococker detents.

I have had a couple, and worked on a few more. They were regular cocker detents.
But who knows what variations actually exist.

Millies use cocker detents. I've been around thousands of them and have never seen one with any other style of detent.

Agree; Millieniums use cocker detents.

I once used a Doc's detent on a Millenium, if you want to get really specific to this case...

Thanks guys, I'll let the viewer know.

This one is dual detented and uses two of Doc's detents. Honestly it's my favorite Spyder. Shoots amazing.
