- I don't understand the problem! :) I have a MMR (Not a Derringer, but
- I would think they are basically made the same) with the 2 meg ram board
- attached to it's side, which makes it kinda heavy, and I've *never* had it
- even get a little loose! It still takes a good amount of tugging to get
- it out.. With no supports, either..
-
- Maybe the Derringer weighs 8 pounds or something.. :)
