It actually got back to my office on July 9th, just short of 3 months. I was in New Brunswick, Canada at the time though. Funny, I was pretty close to Houlton, ME on the 7th when they shipped it.

No, I didn't call to bug them about it. Figured the less time they spent answering the phones, the more time they had to fix guns.

Baseball playoffs for my son this week, wedding on Saturday, invite to a fundraiser party on Sunday, trip pictures to arrange into a DVD for the family, and an alternator to replace on the Exploder... It may be a little while before I get to mess with the little German-American leadslinger.

Unbelievable - the doorbell just rang and it was Fedex. They could have at least sent me a new magazine after having my gun for 3 months.

Alternator huh. I remember years ago the front bearing went on the 325. The local imported parts place wanted $400 for a reman alternator. They said they could give me one from a different manufacturer for $350 (Lucas aka. the prince of darkness). I pulled it apart, pressed out the bearing and for $8 replaced both the front and back bearing.

Well back to my thin-set chipping.
