    But how long will they last? I just see the loading mechanism, being a part that moves not unlike an extractor, what happens when it breaks?

    I just don't see enough people buying them to keep production alive, for parts when it eventually does break.

    Maybe I can't argue that as I'd like a Kimber Solo

    Suppose that's not really consideration for a gun that won't get shot enough to wear out.

    The ammo preference isn't a consideration, like you said several guns run like this.

    A German Lugar also used a theoretically 'delicate' operating system. They seem to 'take a licking and are still ticking.'

    I do not enjoy being on call. Can't really do anything but watch the phone since it takes me 30 minutes from home to clocked in and 30 minutes is all the time allowed.

    I'm waiting for the 1pm phone call that tells me if I'm still on call at 3pm or not. If not, I'm heading to the clubhouse and Cabelas, not necessarily in that order.

    Oops, I went into Jack's pawnshop in Gary, and a Smith 10-5 blued snubby followed me home. It looks to be in about 90-95% condition with stag grips that may or may not be real. Pics later.

    Ummm, you know, you might have a problem.

    You are new to shooting, and it's a great big nice wonderful world.
    But...... you don't have to buy a new gun every week.

    Don't you just hate when that happens? It's like they have no respect for your bank account! :-D

    You're just mad that she accepts responsibility for her purchases, instead of finding someone else to blame. :P
