Jim:

Congratulations! It would appear that you have a winner there. I'm glad it all worked out as hoped.

Regarding the magazine disassembly, I doubt that there is anyone among us who has not at one time or another had a small spring or a spring-loaded part launch itself across the room while we were working on a firearm. On the rare occasion that I fire my striker-fired FN Browning 1922 "safe queen," I'm actually tempted to drape a sheet over myself and the work bench just to catch flying bits and pieces when I fieldstrip it for cleaning.  ;D

Richard, that would look quite scary!

I like my hands in a strong clear plastic bag, freezer bag works fine.

Instead of looking like Charles Dickens' Ghost of Christmas Past, I'll adopt your plastic bag technique instead.   ;D

Jim.  Glad it all worked out.  I do like those Silvertps.

Been there..done it! The best advice I've ever received about playing with springs is to do it in a one gallon zip lock bag! This goes double for anything Rohrbaugh!!!
