Thanks Dave. Now I don't have to keep searching archives. You'd think I'd remember to bookmark them but that would make sense.

Thanks Dave, I know I will never be a gunsmith. I do appreciate your informative posts should I need to use it or to at least understand how things work. Many times just knowing how it works can be a great help in diagnosing or fixing a problem.
