Here is my take, If you haven't already sent in your gun, then you may be better off waiting until you see when they are going to start returning them. If my gun is going to sit someplace for a few months, it may as well sit in my house. the likelihood of the gun having that issue is very low, "my opinion", since I have never heard of one having the issue, "either issue". Springfield says that it "could" happen, but as of yet there are no cases of it happening.
Also perhaps this may turn into a situation where they can send out the part if you so choose, and have it replaced yourself. I think that they had no idea of the gravity of how this would hit them until they see the thousands of guns coming in.
I had already gotten my RMA stamp sent to me, when I decided to wait. I have other guns to use and until I know exactly what part is bad, and how long it's going to take, the gun can sit here. There is a good chance that this occurrence will never even happen.
I sounds like you really have to worry upon loading the gun, so if it's in the nightstand there is a million to 1 chance that it's going to happen to your gun.
I don't suggest anyone do this, but it's what I am doing for now, until more information comes out. I don't need my gun rusting in some warehouse while they figure out that they underestimated the time frame on this which large companies are famous for. I would like to first know what they are replacing, and if they have the parts and manpower to do it in a timely manner or if the gun is going to be gone for 6 months.
