Very unfortunate that the large demand for guns has caused the manufacturers to lower their QC standards to the level that we are seeing.

There are several new guns that I would love to buy, but they are only available online, not locally. However, I am not willingly to "roll the dice" on an online purchase anymore and then have the hassle of dealing with what comes out of the box.
