Fix my gun Chiappa's questionable build quality and finish

Any fellow Chiappa owners (and specifically LA322 owners) dealing with quality control issues on their rifles?

Purchased this LA322 Bandit Bootleg earlier this year and its only seen the range twice, yet the finish is peeling right off with no effort. I fear at some point I'll be left with a bare receiver.

I'm considering opening a claim with Chiappa's warranty department. Fingers crossed they'll cover it?

You should open a claim for sure!

It looks like a good old Ruger 10/22 receiver with paint peeling off! Ruger made things right when it happened. I guess Chiappa might do the same thing .

Good luck

It's not great that Ruger paints the friggin inside of 10/22 receivers. Everytime I pull it apart to really clean, there's flakes suspended in the filth.
