I have forgotten more about gunsmithing than you will ever know, besides who are you to judge? You know perfectly well what you were doing asking "I thought you were a gunsmith". Part of being a professional is knowing when to ask a question, many times it is the expedient way to get a solution. Asking others does not dimish one's qualifications. I also know how to behave in a civil manner, not making snide remarks, using foul language or questioning one's sexuality. Crass & crude as has come to typify posters like above. If you cannot make a positive contribution or say anything nice then not responding is the civilized, gentlemanly thing to do. Look back in the gunsmithing section archive and see how much gunsmithing information I have shared from a career in the trade of 40 years. Then ask yourself "what have I contributed"?
