Ok, Im looking at this English adjustable Shot bag tip and im just not seeing how you attach it. Maybe its so simple im looking to hard. Its just a ring in a ring and the tip screws into it. Can anyone enlighten me on this. Maybe a picture. Thanks guys. Sean
 
If you are talking about the English shot tip, like TOW and others are selling. There are two types. One is just glued on with an outer "Chokers cord sewn around the outside of the leather. The othe type comes the same way, but also has an outer brass collar to go on the outside over the leather instead of the choker cord.

OK, this is a swag. I would suspect that you fold the leather neck over the inner ring, then press the whole mess onto the outer ring and then thread in the valve.
 
Thats what I originally thought. I figured id ask if anyone knew the right way without doubt. I did see one that looked like it was glued to the inner ring, doubled over pressed in then two small screws through the outter to the inner for extra strenght.
 
Just some added help here in just 4 words.

Git some up in that neck,,you'll be happyer later, instead of sadder sooner.
