Default Top Flite Arrow Builders

I was putting in the nose gear supports and rail this afternoon and lucky I was able to remove them before the epoxy set overnight. If you look at the book/plan you will see that the rails end even with the supports. THIS IS WRONG. Either the supports are cut wrong or the plans don't show the rails extending past the supports. In any event the rails should not end even with the supports as they are included. I'm planning on calling Top-Flite on Monday morning and will try to get this all sorted out. Maybe Bax can answer this. It would be nice if Top-Flight would send me some new rails and supports seeing as how something (plan or die-cut) was wrong.

**Edit** I just checked the side view plan. It does show the rails extending past the supports. I assume this is correct and the bottom view and pictures in the manuals are wrong.
