Well, never heard of this happening but nonetheless this past weekend the spring inside the side-charging handle on my 16" LRP-07 gave out and broke. Contacted JP and they recommend sending it in for a replacement. Was planning on using it this weekend for deer opener in Minnesota and won't have time to send it in prior to opener. Any chance someone has an extra laying around they'd sell, or would lend me theirs for opener weekend? Thanks all!
