Brad,
Thank you for sharing your insights with us.
Your last sentence speaks the loudest.
"one can not learn that from a set of instructions"
I'm a tradesman diesel/locomotive mechanic with 40 years worth of experience gleened from the school of hard knocks. I can troubleshoot and quickly repair locomotives that others wonder how I do it. All I can tell them is I learned it by getting my hands greasy and paying attention to detail in the process of skinning my knuckles. You've learned your trade the same way and I appreciate you sharing your hard earned knowledge with us.
As I've told you before. I would love to be able to sit down with you in your shop and have a long conversation about all things mechanical including gun restoration. I know your my kind of guy.
Thanks again,
Paul
