Now the trigger bar hangs as limp as a boiled spaghetti noodle. The bar spring is supposed to press the bar upwards.

And now I'm smoking a cigar. And drinking a beer.
Sounds according to SOP to me

I'd rather my own son see me die on my feet as a free man, than watch him go, broken, into slavery.

More like a user induced malfunction.

I will not comply. I will not lie down. I will not go quietly. I will not submit. I will not roll over. I will not shut up.
