Thanks ihookem, I bought my L&R locks through Track, and they're my source for flints as well. I don't do quite as well on the internet as these younger guys do, (I'm a dinosaur!), so I guess I missed seeing them on the website.

I'm heading to the club this morning to check out the Tomatoe Stake for the last time. If the polish job did any good I'll have a really interesting nickname for the GPR, (My Renegade is called "Mabel"), if not, Track will be geting another call about a Green Mountain replacement.

On the hopeful side, all that I have done to the GPR is mostly from those ideas from 24Hour Campfire posts, and I would be pleased to outline it here for anyone on the forum with the same misfortune to at least have a chance to get the "junk" usable! THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR ALL THE HELP!!!!!
