In closing, I would like to sincerely thank everyone for the opportunity to help preserve these great old guns.

After reading through the different design faults he listed here I ask Mr. Vicknair if still thinks they are great old guns?


It's a social convention known as being polite.

It appears that there are at least a few on this board who, rather than take insight based upon almost 30 years of gunsmithing experience, for free, and educate themselves, would rather attempt to assassinate my credibility by trying to "catch me in a lie" or some other such nonsense.

I posted an unbiased assessment of the design of a specific gun.

If any are offended by that, that's their problem. If your personal identity is so closely tied to a few pieces of wood and metal that what I said upsets you, perhaps a change in the dosage of your medication is in order.

Far too many on this board would rather be right (in their mind) than educated (in actuality).
