I've seen many Sheaffer Legacy Mk1 pens with new "fantasy" barrels, and wondered if anyone (Ron?) had ever tried removing the filler tube from the blind cap in order that regular converters can be used? I know the regular squeeze converter fits anyway, in place of the converter that works with the tube filler, but I wondered if the twist converter might also fit if the filler tube was permanently removed from the blind cap.

I wish it was just a screw in filler but it's a rivet. I suppose trying to get the tube off of the rivet would break or dent the sliver blind cap anyway. However I'm interested to learn if anyone has successfully done it.
