I see some games have one, and some games have the other. It SEEMS like the acorn nuts would age better- the rubber post caps on my Meteor, and I think on Firepower were both in rough shape.
Since, I've replaced the Firepower with Nylon ones, and put the rubber on the Meteor. I'll see how those age.
Does anyone have a preference one way or the other?

I see... and if the plastics are held down tightly with nuts, then should the ball strike it, then the rubber gives instead of the plastic,which, I guess if the nuts were locked on, the plastic would be the weakest link. I get it.
Interesting, because someone asked me about that the other day when they were buying a game, I told him I wasn't really sure, but now I see the point of maybe not tightening them down like a vice.
Thanks!
