I've found the plastic construction of the Orion 12GA to be pretty bomb proof. What I cannot figure is why Orion builds it with a ferrous spring inside. I always try to keep my flares or flare guns on my pfd but never seem to keep the water out, can't find a reliable dry bag that small. What happens after about a month of playing in the water I'll pull out my Orion for a check up and find that sure enough just a little water made through my defences and now I have rusty shells and a flare gun that won't open because of a rusted broken spring. I've gone through two 12GA guns in this manner and won't take them out any more. Brgds, Jeff __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
