Thanks, Hank. I just ordered a new sear spring, so it'll be 100% again in a couple days.

About 15 years ago, it wouldn't have been a big deal, but now I live kinda far away.

I used to live in Quakertown, and went to Knoebel's Grove every summer.

Just a quick update...

This thing is officially a pistol again! I had some problems with a gummed up main spring. (I forgot to take it apart and clean the bore it's in) Once I got that squared away, I took it out back, loaded a round in the chamber and pulled the trigger. (point black into my fire pit) It fired, the shell casing ejected and nothing came apart. (including my hand) As soon as the sear spring gets here, It'll be a perfect working pistol again.

WOO HOO!
