Not so much a mod as a simple adjustment. I had previously noticed that my best shooting naturals seemed to always have a fork gap of around 1.5 inches so I stuck my Dankung in a vise and squeezed the forks down to this gap. It shoots more accurately for me, and as a bonus I find there is less strain on my thumb and index finger due to less extension. Just saying Edit : sorry I forgot to measure the original gap before squeezing the forks

If you shoot better with it squeezed down like that, I am assuming you must have a small hand and you must be a good flip shooter, right?

Sorry Sherlock, I have normal size hands and don't flip

Been faffing around with the Dankung again. I cut a 1/4 " out of the bottom of the frame and squeezed the gap closed then fitted a beech handle as I like to use the hammer hold. I shoots very well now for me

Made matching scales for my Swiss Army knife. Far too much time on my hands
