I remember when a coal handler brought his Ruger pistol to the control room. I looked at it, quickly disassembled it and challenged him to put it together.
He spent hours at it! Then I took it, turned my back and within a few seconds I had it back together. He reached for it, and I quickly disassembled it again!
He spent much of the midnight shift cussing me while trying to put it back together.
Finally he learned the “trick”.
The trick is .....Cash, Checks or credit cards accepted! ;-D
Mine is tight. I had to peck it with a mallet to get it out. I put a new trigger kit in and . . . wait did you say you accept credit cards?
I just let mine get dirty. My dad took it apart and he had a heck of a time getting it back together. Since then, I swore never to do a takedown until it stops shooting.
