I agree. Starting over just because you replaced a spring is nonsense. Couple of mags worth should be more than sufficient.

"Thanks a lot for talking to me like I'm a freaking moron. I appreciate that friend."
What can I say, just setting the record straight.
"To the OP, I apologize for the thread hijack."
That would be me.

"Good Morning everyone.
I just returned from my business trip Thursday evening. I have been with LIF from very early on. Steve and Bella are great people, as are many of the members I have met through this forum. I’d like to humbly thank you all for your kind words as they mean quite a bit to me. Not getting too much into detail, but rather offer what is, at this point some five months later, becoming common knowledge in the industry. My brother Karl and I sold Rohrbaugh Firearms Corp. to Para USA / Remington Outdoor Company this past January. Both Karl and I remain on as consultants to the company to present updates in design, present future product ideas and will also help in the areas of production and more. We have both signed confidentiality contracts with the new owners, so, as many of you might already know, what we can say outside of business has its limits so please understand that. I just returned from the Pineville, North Carolina plant where Para USA resides. I was also shown the new Remington R51 as they were being assembled. An interesting pistol. They are currently installing over 40 new CNC machines at this location. They are certainly staying up to date with their machinery!
May I say there was an unfortunate fire there last Friday afternoon, May 17, 2014 located and confined to the test firing range. The rest of the facility is intact so if you have a warranty repair there, rest assured your firearm was in a locked room at the opposite end of the building so those are fine and undamaged as is the rest of the facility. They already have most of the range apart and rebuilding it. It should be up and running again in about two weeks or so, so all is well at Para USA!
In closing, I just wish to say that I sincerely appreciate your comments here, which I will now address individually.
Thank you all and enjoy the upcoming Memorial Day Weekend by remembering why it is named Memorial Day.
Respectful Regards to All,
ECR aka Eric C. Rohrbaugh "

You are lowering it, Arkansas Paul.

I don't dispute that.
However, I do think it very amusing that personal insults and basically calling someone stupid doesn't result in anyone claiming "low road" actions, but the word "ass" offends people.
I'll remove the post and send it via PM.

Glad to see big green nabbed these guys,
God knows they know how to make a good modern polymer pistol!

I guess he told me. No facts, so he name calls.
I won't repeat the message he sent me, but he didn't even offer to kiss me first.

I've sent another PM John and I won't argue in the open forum like I started to do before.
Apologies to the members who were just reading the thread and saw my earlier post. Y'all didn't asked to be drug into an argument and I should have made the conversation via PM from the beginning.
And John, I haven't said a single thing on here that I wouldn't say if we were face to face.
