Doesn't sound like a happy gun to me, Stan.
Jerry - I had to have one gun rebuilt and I admit it freely. It was an early TM1 and heavily used when I got it, definitely new locking bar time. But, not knowing any better at the time I shot it for a couple years, maybe 100K-140K targets. And then had it rebuilt. It did need a new locking bar and just to be good guy it got a new firing pin too. My Dad then used the gun for about ten years and after he passed I sold it to the current owner who puts about 500-600 thru it a week. Looks like the upkeep on that thing is gonna be scary like $o.ooo4/shot. Good thing I got a buy on it to start with, eh?
