Thanks, Railsplitter. I'm in the process of disassembling it again. This time I'm going to clean it thoroughly and oil it properly before reassembling. My friend tells me it hasn't been touched since he was a child and we're both near-60. I got the same feeling as you about the trigger plate, but to the naked eye that's all working properly. No wiggle (or any sort of movement) in the plate at all when it's assembled and finger pressure is applied to the trigger. Gonna just keep on plugging away at this till I figure it out. Like I told Dave, it's just smarter to open a conversation with folks who've already "been there". :-)

BTW, I'm just south of Austin TX in Hays County if anybody's close by. In Mountain City, which is a tiny development located right next to Hays High School on FM 2770.
