<div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">The brass is split all to hell. I have had John Dewey do some before, as well as Chris Robinson. However, at over $600 for installing two rails that cost about $70 each, plus the delay in shipping and waiting, I gotta find a better way. I can handle most of the foreseeable problems, but have never soldered anything that heavy. A local tech, Dale Whitehead, had installed these before,so my inclination is to have it done locally. </span></div>
