Well golly. I also have it on good authority, from a commentator, who spoke with the warden, that Charles Manson categorically denied his crime.
I have also never said the all USA made USFA weren't FINE guns. They are. However, when you have worked on as many of them as I have, you discover they do have warts. they did/do require more than just "springs." I have also stated, USFA guns were overpriced. They were and now are commanding stupid money.
You are also entitled to your "opinion," right, wrong or indifferent. Oh, and I also have it on good authority, the Machine tools from USFA were seen shipped to Standard. What "they" did with them?? No clue. But there is certain evidence . . .
Have Fun Out There
