In search of K style die head

[mmcmdl]

Looking for a 5/16ths inch die head K style . I've exhausted my search sites and came up with nada . I have a D style head . I bought a few sets of chasers for it up at Cabin Fever this year . In the bottom of the large box , there were at least 100 sets of K style chasers . These will not fit my D style head . If anyone has one , or sees one for sale in their travels , PM me . A 12 oz finder's fee will be rewarded . Send pics if you find any or have one because I have never seen one . TIA Dave .

Are yours 4 chasers per set (KD head) or 5 chasers per set (KDS head)?

4 chasers per set . They are marked K style .

You would save lots of people time if the title was not a mystery.

Gotta be Geometric?
I might be talked out of a small Landis.

Does this take K style inserts ? And is it a 5/16ths head ?

Landis system is very different from Geo.
My guess is that you don't want one of these little Landis.
Advise should you get desperate.

I have a Geo DSA . I picked up a to of 5/16ths K style chasers that can't be used in the Geo .

Sounds like you should stick with the Geos!!
I'll let hands and brains wiser than mine argue which is better....
But they are different/incompatible.
