Parker Jotter. Bought the gel cartridge and really like how it writes.

Not sure what 'nicer' means here but I've been using Pilot pens and mech pencils for 30 years.

I've been using the same two Rite in the rain black metal clicker pins for over two years. Still on the original ink cartridges at that, and I used them daily.
I think they were around $15 each.

Can't go wrong with the Zebra you are using.

Interesting trivia: the spring from one of these pens makes a perfect field expedient replacement for a missing buffer tube detent spring in an AR. Come to think of it, I never did bother putting a "correct" spring back in the damn thing.

It's a screw cap and it takes pilot G2G refills which are gel rollers, not ballpoint.
But if you are interested and think you could use it I'd be glad to instant karma it to you.
Wow wonderful. I'd love it! Thank you. Thats so kind and generous of you.

I hacked a Zebra 701 to replace the plastic top with a stainless one....you can see the hack at this linky
But I like the way the standard military black pen (Skilcraft) writes smoothly...the Zebra inks are thick and so is the Fisher Space Pen cartridges....

Parker makes a wonderful Jotter ballpoint pen , costs beteek n $18 and $22, depending on the finish. JetPens sells them. I have 2 of these pens, one filled with regular Parker ballpoint refills, and the other filled with a Parker Gelpen refill.

I was just logging on to suggest the Parker Ball Jotter. I prefer a "fine" tip...have been using this pen for many MANY years.

Pilot G2 Limited Edition. It's $9 and uses gel ink refills. Nearly everyone I loan it to is amazed by it. Nice heft, rubber grip, metal body. Additionally, you can buy the less expensive plastic version in multi-packs.
