Thanks Jim and Marshall.
I was not really thinking of checking any of the new parts ( this is a
new motor with only 10,000 miles on it). However,
weird things do happen. I'll let you know latter this week.
Sorry for the spelling error.

But does the murder rate go down? I'm not interested in a lower chance

The fact is that crime goes down in "shall issue states" because the would

I think in Florida it's now legal to shoot anyone as long as you shout
"he's headed right for us!" first. ;)
Wait until they go to exit (assuming they don't back out the door but
choose to walk/run), then redecorate the bank door with the contents of the
nearest bad guy's cranial cavity.
You will go to jail for murder if you do that. Can't shoot a guy running away!

Very real concerns. The first one is simply reality. Your gun may do you NO
