[QUOTE="okierider, post: 3429404, member: 41708"] I wished I would have had that advice on the first pistol I bought to "learn". The pistols I work on/ refurb now are platforms I know thoroughly. The first one (tanfaglio TitanII) took me forever to get running, too much money and a lot of frustration and time sitting on the top of my gun safe waiting for my knowledge to catch up to the level of experience I needed to finely figure out the issue. I had some where in the area of $250 dollars wrapped up in a pistol I bought for $100. $350 dollar lesson learned which I could not bring myself to sell cause I knew the pistol would not keep functioning for long even after I managed to fix it. Broke it down and sold it for parts. Still have the frame sitting around functioning as a paper weight. [/QUOTE]
