Cheers Lynn, yes the trigger was alloy, bit gutted about being broke,,,,, but that's life.
I did not know the gear sticks were straight, wonder why that has been done (other than a large lumberjack could not get first without gouging himself with the gear stick)
I could not see any signs of it being heated either..
I think I will leave it like that for now then straighten it later after the carrier has been to W&P
(That's code for me bottling it)
