Hi Max,     You and I have different impressions of the FS92/M9 as  I never had any mag failures but I never practiced fast mag changes like you either.    Of course, with your military needs I can see how you would be critical of the mag problems.     My FS did come with 3 quality all metal

Larry did you purchase that via the "gun show loop hole"? Glad to hear you like it, I'm not a fan. I watched NPR a couple nights ago, some D senator on the most recent mass shooting in TX kept hammering on about the gun show loop hole, he must have mentioned it about 20 times. Completely

I bought a new FS92 at a gun show and it's a great gun.  It runs thru 9mm ammo of any kind whether sore bought on home reloaded.  I even started using cast bullets without issues. If you find the 92 you want I don't think you'll be disappointed. LarryT 91 300D On 11/07/2017 3:11 PM,

To destroy? And no, Mao, I am insanely happy with my 98 W210 wagon. It's like I have returned to my roots with my first MB, a 1979 300TD. I love the wagon and I love the lack of attention it requires, not to mention the 24 mpg I've been getting around town in it. Last night I reveled in

The 600s has SLS. However, without looking at it I'm betting the top strut mount failed. If the rubber gets so bad on one of these that it fails, the top of the strut can literally punch through the hood. There are retainers that are supposed to prevent this, but if they're out of place or

They have a typical strut setup that is not prone to rust out like the W210 spring perches, if that’s what you’re asking. If you are familiar with a W124 front suspension, it’s very similar. -D > On Nov 8, 2017, at 11:48 PM, Mitch Haley via Mercedes > wrote: > >
