Good job Cheese!

John Browning could have used this in 1903!

When he was trying to sell the idea.

He would have notice an extra part or two. (series 80)

Someone spent a good deal of time on those.

Nice! I really like the extractor/ejector chart. I'm the farthest thing from a gunsmith there is, but I cannot believe how many people mix these two parts and confuse their purpose and function.

In the future, I will simply refer them to this diagram rather than tackle their firmly-held (yet incorrect) beliefs.
