First rule of ...(pick your mechanical specialty)...
If it does't fit (won't work) get a bigger hammer. If it breaks, it was defective, and needed to be replaced, anyway.
Of course there is, but few actually understand that, and so if they watch, not understanding, they think you're an idiot...
OMG HE'S BENDING the barrel!!!!
so?? nice when a barrel is straight, looks good. But what matters is that the barrel SHOOT straight.
I know how mechanical things work, and how they don't, and sometimes the right answer is "a good bash!"
And, as a plus, if it doesn't fix the problem, at least you get to hit the thing that is ticking you off!
