Ted, I think you got it. More than likely the design flaw you refer to. Can I live with it if that is the case or is it going to lead to other problems down the road? I'm beginning to appreciate my english gun. BTW, I blame you guys for my acquisition of this gun. You would think from the prior post on this BB that you couldn't go wrong with a model 21. Like it was the best thing since sliced bread. This education is getting expensive.

Regards,

Max
