Pretty much. I sold the PM-A and others because some things came up and I did not want to dip into my savings...once you start that,it's easy to keep "borrowing" from yourself. Things improved,and I wanted a replacement,and I happened to find the right deal at the right time. Were you the other guy interested in it?
And,the external extractor models are not produced by DW anymore,but it's the S&W design so parts are definitely available.
