You offer four different types of joints for Viking cues. Which is best?
Cue joint selection is a matter of personal preference. If possible, you should base such a selection on previous experience. If you are new to the game or have never owned a cue, your best bet is joint A or B. Joint D offers the best hit in terms of how closely it resembles the look, "feel," and "play" of a one-piece cue.
Will the Viking quick-release pin compromise durability of the joint?
No. We researched this over several years. The removal of all but about 4 to 6 threads from the male pin does not compromise the durability or strength of the joint because those additional threads are not needed.
What is the advantage of the quick-release pin?
The advantage is that it requires 50% fewer turns to tighten your cue and take it apart.
