I had just recoiled, rewicked and refilled my bottle with very well-steeped Strawnilla. Fired her up, puff puff pu...uuuh, what was that noise and why is the button stuck? I think I broke something so Iris gets packed up and sent to the REO Dr. Good thing I have a couple of nautilus' but it's just not the same. :(

Oh no!!! At the very least though she will come back from the spa day good as new....

Sorry about the well steeped joose though. :(

ASH, I know I've seen you around for a while, so this may be a stupid question.. but did you remove the delrin cover and check out the innards?

I haven't, I'm honestly kinda scared to.

Edit: Just removed it and it's still sticking and not firing. :(

like the button is turned to lock position, or unlocked and still not hitting the firing pin?

It's unlocked. Upon taking a closer look, I believe the firing pin is busted. Here's a pic of it:

Ruh roh! Can't like this one! Damn girl! Stop pushing that mush button so hard! :p Wish you were closer Ash, I'd pop right over and get your baby back up and running for you in no time. I just made a boo boo myself. Coiled up a new Chalice and to make a long story short, test fired it with the cap off and when I put the cap on, the coil was just barely touching the inside sleeve of the top cap and poof!, my very first short and it cost me a re-build kit as well. Damn good thing it was a Reo! :?:

In any case it's always a good Idea to have a re-build kit on hand just for these type of occasions. Down to one and just received two more. Yep, I was a boy scout once! :)

like brand new when it comes back! Rob is awesome.

I know he'll take good care of my precious. Sure does stink that it happened during the busiest mailing time of the year.

I sure wish you were close by too! Holy moly, glad it was repairable (both yours and mine). Learned my lesson on the heavy finger, I'll be more careful in the future.

Yep broken firing pin:(

Yeah, that's what I thought once I took a closer look. Ah well, at least it's not totally fried, right?

I find that sweet talking my mods makes them work better. ;)
