    Another vector for stoppages:

    When somebody spills coffee/pancake syrup/vomits on your gun, you do actually need to disassemble, clean it, and relubricate it. When you end up...

    Right. It's the type that sits up toward the bolt at rest. I don't care for it, but others seem to like it. It's a different part on the Tactical models, IIRC, because the receivers are different but...

    Odds are Lipseys is taking delivery of the first run in batches. I doubt they got all 4,000 revolvers in one go. And with a couple of initial QC issues, that's likely something they are focused on...
