Just got home from picking up my 627, a gun that I have been thinking about purchasing for about 18 months. My carry gun (386) needs to go back to the factory for work, so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to purchase the 627 and see if I am happy carrying a heavier gun.
This is what I bought. I saw it before I left.
On the ride home I decided to make a post in this forum. This thread happened to be at the top of the list so I opened it up and started reading. I hope the OP is ok with this slight hijack, but I think it is appropriate for two reasons.
One, it's a quality control issue, just like the OP's.
Two, I agree with the OP. How could this possibly leave the factory in this condition? His problem was internal. Mine was external. Neither gun should have left the factory.
I'll send it back. It'll get fixed. But now I'm out two revolvers with nothing to carry. Not to mention that after 18 months of thinking about this gun, I finally have it, for a day, before I ship it off for God knows how long.
To those who say I shouldn't flame S&W before giving them the chance to fix it, I'm not flaming S&W; I'm expressing my frustration. They already had one chance to fix it, and they CHOSE not to do so.
Interestingly enough, there was nothing wrong with the finish on the Bulgarian AK I bought.
