Default Got my M69 back plus my rebate today!

Yes the mailman delivered my $30 rebate this morning and FedEx delivered my 69 from it's 2nd repair trip.

Think they got it right this time as the gap is now .006 on left side and .004 on right.
The action is time better with lockup in DA coming in before hammer is fully back with no issue of the hand hitting the case heads. Plus they finished off the common burr area around the crown very nice.
Another interesting thing is the rifling grooves look to be very polished looking with a brilliant shine!
Oh and they replace the rear sight for some reason and sent the old one back in the case.

Now I won't be able to run some ammo thru it until late next week when hopefully Florence remains will be out of here.

Happy to have a great looking and functioning new Model 69 in my hands again!
