Thanks all.

BTW: if you're interested, here's a pic of the piece in question.

The problem is the little nib in the upper left corner of the object. It's sheered off.


From what I gather there are ways of mending it, but most guys who go this route find it breaks again in as little as 40 rounds. This is one of the reasons Ruger stopped making it. I had run 100 rounds of sub-MAX hunting ammo through it when mine failed. Before that, it had sat in my buddy's safe for 40 years.
