Such short dismissal notice is only seen in severe cases such as embezzling company's funds. Appropriate action before resolving the matter could have been taken. This would show that the HR department...

The mainspring or hammer spring is contained in the mainspring housing. It comes from the factory as a 24 pound, but if you are shooting very light loads in the 700 range I like to install a Wolff 20 pound or even an 18 pound spring so the recoiling slide...
