I don't want to highjack this thread, but how about some pictures and comments about the gun in question. The floor plate is the worst, I will have to file it completely flat to get rid of the pits. I would rather have it with no engraving than with the pits though, so under the file it goes.

I emailed Lion Country Supply about a spring and they suggested I drop the gun off and their "off site gunsmith" would fix it. I emailed back that the gun is already tore down, and I just need a spring.
