Doc - shortly after I bought the gun (paid $300 for it which I thought was expensive for a .22) I had a spring go bad.  Professional Ordnance was out of business - someone suggested I contact Bushmaster.  I did and ended up talking to a gunsmith at Bushmaster who had worked for PO.  He actually had a couple of the springs and sent them to me gratis! 
 
That wasn't the first time that had happened; in the early 1980s I took a S&W Model 39 down to the bare frame.  Hey a 1911 strip down is a piece of cake; how bad could a DA/SA 9mm semi-auto be?  Bad!  Imagine using one's coffee table as a work bench; shag carpeting on the floor, and dropping the safety detent piece on the shag carpet!  Never found it; wrote a letter to S&W; told them what happened, and about 4 weeks later, received the part in the mail!  Good on you S&W!
