    For those of you who've sent yours back....

    They will send it straight back to you but an adult will have to be home to sign for the package. I sent mine in for OBD also. I asked S&W what they did to the rifle and the only thing they would tell me was "Brought up to the latest spec". Which was frustrating IMO. I have a DWC serial and...
