I do understand what you're saying.
But for me, it's always been a balancing act between: a) potentially getting a fully-fixed and better running gun... vs. ... b) risking shipping damage, sloppy work and potentially even worse problems than had I not sent it in.
That's why whenever I can fix something myself, I do so.
Verdict is still out on this buggy 442-1. I am out of town right now, but when I return I'll mess with it a little more, I'll call the mothership... and then I'll make my decision.
