What did you find out? Did you get the problem solved?

Been watching to see what you came up with. Let us know what happened.

Mike,
I printed out the info. from you, and Jules sent me a diagram of the frame so I can use it to help me work on it.
But, I have been working 12-15 hour days and when I do get a minute I go out on the deck and smoke a cigarette and kill something (I live in a very rural area).
I promise I will let you know what I find out as soon as I have time to check into it again. The fact that the frame works fine with the RF barrel and not the CF barrel is likely a hint of the problem, but I'll find out.
T.D.

T.D.,
Give me a heads up if you need help, fella.

And Weet, you will stop someday, if you live long enough. But by the time the paranoia sets in when you are literally suffocating, you may not have much time left to enjoy a change of mind about it.

I finally quit the Copenhagen back in '99 and am still slurping up all the info I can about avoiding or curing cancer..... just in case! Odds are in my favor now, but just the same, I am not taking chances.

Message to all, though, solvents can be just as bad as tobackie. A percentage of that solvent on your hands while cleaning barrels ends up soaked through your skin, and your liver and kidneys have to filter it out. It ends up of course in your bladder and does cause bladder cancer.

Gary T. has Dr. in front of his name and can shed more light on the subject than a layman can of course.

However, the very first thing I do after I open the door to my shop and before I start handling anything is to slip on a pair of nitrile gloves. They are not that expensive. About $15/C, and cheap insurance. You see, I also spent about 20 years soaked in solvents and cutting oils, but no more.

I strongly suggest you slip on a pair of gloves when you clean your barrels, etc. Latex gloves don't hold up very long in oils/solvents, but are only about $4/C from Wally World and probably sufficient for the time spent cleaning.
