Due to my mild OCD, if I have a gun that I’m really fond of, I try to obtain a fairly complete spare parts “set” to go with it, paying particular attention to finding and keeping the parts most likely to wear out or break (think “consumables”). I like to buy a more or less complete “parts kit” when possible, and if I have to use a part try to replace the spare with a new one ASAP. Doesn’t always work, but usually I’m safe!

OK, so maybe it’s not mild OCD!
