Wings Of Freedom Tour

19 September 2009 - 04:05 PM

For about twelve years now, I've been going to my local Airport to see something pretty cool. A B17, B24 and a P51 take a nonstop tour, all around the US. The Collings Foundation owns all these Planes along with a massive collection of WW1, WW2, Korean War and Vietnam War Aircraft. The Collings Foundation is located in Stow, MA; New Smyrna Beach , FL; Houston, TX. Along with these Aircraft, the founder, Rob Collings, also owns many old and new cars too.

Ls Help

05 September 2009 - 12:02 AM

Over the Winter I was playing around with my LS when suddenly it wouldn't cock. I pulled the bolt all the way back and it just wouldn't catch. Upon a investigation, I found this to be the culprit.

It's a little hard too see...

As you can see the 19/32" Brass and all the other brass tubes managed to slide under the black piece and through the hot glue. I pulled and pulled the best I could, with friends and vices but it just wouldn't come off. I was planning on freezing the piece then try yanking it out but I was worried about the O-ring cracking then just falling off.

And so...

I have three questions.

1. How the hell should I go about fixing this?
2. Is the black piece reusable?
3. How do I go about preventing this (At the time I was using a stock LS and BBB spring)?

Thanks

BTW, This is my first time using Photobucket. I scaled the pics down 50%. Let me know if there still to big.
