Um, my shovel only marks it's spot when I keep oil in the bag. lol
I'd rather push a Harley than ride a rice grinder. And at this point, I may soon want to own a High Point vs Taurus.

I expect not to have to call customer service on any day.
Call Glock, Ruger, S&W, SA, Kimber, Sig etc. on a Monday and see how long you wait.
But since I did, like I mentioned earlier, on hold for 30 someting minutes and hung up. Called back again later in the day and waited a little over 10 minutes.
They are sending me the 'parts' to replace the ones laying in the dirt somewhere. They send it ground and should be here in 7-10 days. So that should be about wednesday this week.
And I will add, I was impressed with the accuracy of the 40 or so rounds I did shoot considering a 2"bbl.

Okily dokily, thanks for clarifying.
Pretty high noise to signal ratio here, just got lost.
Sorry you got a little lemon juice with your new pistol, glad they made it right. ( assuming the parts show up as promised)

Ha ha ha.
Thanks.
I tease and joke a LOT in my daily life.
I find an OK sense of humor to be a great stress reliever.
After 20 years in the army, I came to the conclusion that life itself is just way too short to take everything on the planet so seriously all the time.
I mean, in the end, none of us ever make it outta this place alive anyways.
So might as well have some fun too.
Loose screws on a revolver? Time to invest in blue loctite.
I shot two revolvers tonight, a Smith and a Pietta. When I was done I found a loose action screw on the Pietta (which I just converted from BP to 45LC, so I haven't shot it in several years) and a loose cylinder latch on the Smith.
To be fair, the cylinder latch on one of my Taurus revolvers has come loose a time or two as well. The other two....chambered in smaller calibers...have never had any issues.
Unless you loctite them, screws WILL come loose. I don't care what brand you are shooting.
