Full load on one of these is still $1200-1400 with the case and bullet feeders, it's not THAT cheap, and you can get a 750 for about that kind of money. No need for swage on pistol for the most part....

Interesting! I'll give that a try tomorrow. I solved my own problem with the flipper arm and sacrificed a ballpoint pen to get the spring - it now clicks more or less like I'd expect.

I've printed this thing, and it works, but I'm getting a lot of bullets nose down. I THINK this is because I'm not using the right spring for the flipper arm thing. The one I bought was too strong...
