Thanks! Got it for $389 plus tax. I felt pretty good about that. Now I need to figure out how to tell my wife I need one. Think I'm going to try the tried and true lady's trick "this old thing? I've had this for ever."

That is what I do Lane.

I put it in the safe before she gets home from work and she never knows the difference!!!

Of course I can take one out of the safe that I have honestly had for years and shes says now when did you get that new one!!!

If all else fails Lane jewelry always helps!!!

Lane... when I told my wife I was getting my DW CCO.... she said: "Why do you need a new gun?" I succinctly told her... "I don't NEED a new gun. I WANT a new gun. And I'm taking dancing lessons with you every week. Any other questions?" She said "oh. ok.... looked at her BFF and said "he's a collector."
Still chuckling over that one!

I'm sorry Lane, I just cannot correlate any of MY Sunday sermons as "dry." There's usually not a dry eye in the house (due to all the laughter!)
LOL...

It was a tad stuff the first time I guess. Yes it was the main spring housing pin. Keep in mind that my work space is very messy - I'm sure that I'll find it one day.
