Gun and gear reviews Would you accept this?

Received this box after a long wait. Imported from the states. Barrel is far from ‘free floating’ in fact it’s almost ‘bedded’ on the right side of the barrel. I’ve heard story’s of the Gen 2 American’s not being seated well, but IMO this is unusable.

With this being imported, there is an almost zero chance of it being replaced ……

Shitty deal.

I would personally just keep it, get it warm and slowly bend it back. I’d contact the company and see what they said first. But that’s me. I think the hassle of sending something back across the border, outweighs the hassle of bending it back. I also kind of like solving these types of problems though.

Definitely the best option. See if u can get the company to sort it first, then diy if there isn’t the option. I’ll check my new gen 2 prairie but I’m pretty sure it’s good, although a bit too flexible for my liking. I plan to put a chassis on it anyways
