I do hope the spring is the culprit- it would be nice to have a simple, affordable alternative that could alleviate the anxiety that I am sure will now plague every pull of the bolt.a Gray Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02357081962707932143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699525663085656463.post-16397420983022396592012-03-29T15:47:01.771-05:002012-03-29T15:47:01.771-05:00Fear not.

Sorry Zook, it's pretty crappy to know it came apart in correlation with my advice being taken. I can't imagine the two "clamshell" grip options I spoke of would be any harder on the internals than a fully two-handed approach, but still...I'm practically ready to buy a 5kg spring just out of solidarity. Hopefully OMW's customer service lives up to their reputation as far as getting you a new kit is concerned.<br /><br />At a minimum, I will no longer be taking advantage of the fact that a traditional one-handed prime works with my kit- that certainly puts extra stress on the internals and I suppose I'd be wise to avoid it.a Gray Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02357081962707932143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699525663085656463.post-11905866072718885192012-03-29T13:36:28.641-05:002012-03-29T13:36:28.641-05:00I was worried about the polycarb parts strength wh...I was worried about the polycarb parts strength when they first revealed them, and my fears has come true.
