Thanks. I can tell it was a lower price gun. There are sharp edges that can cut you. They would have been finished on a better gun. Also the hinge was VERY tight. Not dirt or lube but never fitted right. Just spent a hour stoning the burs off the flats. She is smooth now. The latch was very hard...
