Good news, bad news. The good news is Fedex found my rifle. They said it fell out of the box at the Charlotte, NC hub. Fedex shipped it to me the next day. Sure enough it had been dropped. The rear thumb screw for the carry handle took a hard lick and was scratched pretty good. The charging handle also took a hit and was scratched and slightly bent. Standing on the front porch deciding whether or not to sign for it, I inspected it and saw it was mostly cosmetic damage. I really, really did not want to send it back a third time if it was fixed. Good news is I took it out today, fired it, and it functioned flawlessly. They did however switch the original barrel with a M&P 15 Sport barrel. I now have a franken gun, But I'm happy. Still going to take some convincing to buy S&W again.
