Happiness is a new gun 2

You just picked it up and your already tearing it apart? No bonding, no foreplay, no get to know each other?

I thought you meant me . And yeah, I’m like Bird.

Being my 4th SP101, I already know her pretty well, so let’s get straight to it.

Another man of action! Or pervert, as we are now labeled! Can't keep up all these new words and labels these days. My birthing person must have raised me to be intellectually challenged.

Sorry dao, but I’m gonna have to copy you on this one. That trigger looks like a major improvement. In touching and looking at the stock RIA trigger, I’m thinking it is a chrome plated steel? Hammer kinda looks the same. Definitely parts that can be upgraded.
Love what you’ve done with this one so far. Looking more like a high end custom!!!

It is chrome plated. Feels heavy enough to be steel. The truth will be in the pudding, when I get it to the range. Until I can prove that it shoots well and dependably it's pretty much a heavy paperweight.

Hey dao, You posted up a while back about a tool for removing an extractor. I just learned why. I've never removed one like on the RIA, where the hook hung out past the hole. PITA. I think my boomerang shape analogy was not far off. Had to use one small punch to push the hook back and one to leverage the extractor out from the hammer pin stop slot. Sheez!

Yep, it was a challenge to get it out. I got the tool yesterday. No small amount of ingenuity involved in creating it. If I get the RIA to the range and find it's exhibiting bad extractor symptoms that tool is going to save me some frustration.

Me too John. Or at least I used to be. Too old to get straight to most anything these days. Though I do have some fond memories left. But you know I can't agree with the Colonel on this one. More like a good bird dog who charges right in to find that duck.

Can't I be both? Pretty please?

I did get her a new dress.

I did get her a new dress.

And what a fancy dress! She looks good in it. Not sure if you’d share such a pic, but once her wig arrives… You’ve got me wishing I started my project with yours, not the snubby version.
