Thanks for the memories! Back in the day, when I had my shop, I lost count of the Ruger 22 autos that came in in paper sacks. "My %$#@* brother-in-law took it apart!" Yup... My minimum labor charge was $12.50, so I didn't dare just snap it back together in front of them. So I would take it in the back, snap it together, and then rattle some tools around, bang something with a hammer a time or two, mess up my hair and spread a little water on my face, wait five more minutes, and then come back out with their "fixed" 22, looking like I had really earned that $12.50!:-D

Those were/are very popular little poppers, and their widespread use has kept many a gunsmith in butter n' egg money.
