I don't recall getting much, if any, response.

I feel sympathy for M3W owners who were made to pay for the privilege of having their original defective compensator "upgraded" to a Centa and are now realising that they'll be faced with another large bill when the Centa requires maintenance or modification.

Someone, somewhere within the MMC needs to go back to college and learn some engineering basics.



You have brought up the example of what happens when a dynasty controls things. If a team of internationally educated engineers had worked on the problem they would have concluded that the Liberty Ace , the very patent that they purchased, was the way to do it. Shaft drive worked great for it.
