This thread is not a rant, rave or whine. It's a real experience. Should I have sent the gun back? Yes. Should I have not handled that sharp knife improperly when I was six years old? Yes. But I can't change the past.
Should I have sold the revolver to someone else and let it be their problem and bought another one since they are now available? Hell no! That isn't me.
I'll keep you posted.
