Flippin expensive living in tourism place. We have to pay tourist prices all year round

Yeah! Read about an old gent from Devon who was complaining to his Grandson about the high cost of living. "When I was a boy, you could go out with very little money and still come back home with a dozen eggs, two pints of milk, a pound of bacon, half a pound of tea and a fresh chicken."

"Yes," said his Grandson, "that's inflation for you."

"It's nothing to do with inflation," says Grandad, , "it's all them f*** CCTV cameras they have nowadays."

After over 50,000 rounds I had the detent spring and clip depart my 44 marlin last year. Knocked a new one up on the lathe and been no problem since. Last week the back half of the 2 piece firing pin split in 2 and dropped out. On stripping it down the front half had also split in 2. Both failures were at the spring notches in the pins. Knocked a new one up out of stainless. Works a treat and really lightens up the action. Wish I'd done it years ago. Picture shows it .0005" oversize to allow for final fitting.
