most mistakes and faults should not happen ( even though it's not a perfect world ) it's just oversight on their part or trying to computerise
machinery too much especially with firearms
They should put more effort and thought into new models before going into production even then some faults take awhile to show their heads
Each time they have a call back or fault it costs bulk money this is why the company tries to distance themselves from it so as to avoid the costs
but as someone on here said the company put their hand up and owned the fault so you have to take your hat off to them
Lets hope they are true to their word and every one gets what they want If not then nobody buy their guns let them know people won't tolerate
the garbage they're trying to pull they'll get the message or go broke Remington learnt the hard way with the faulty trigger in the 700 although they still say it
wasn't the trigger ( who knows )
It’s a materials issue, materials may we’ll have come from a China under the wrong spec or with the wrong labels. There’s almost nothing that can be done and it’s why manufacturers go to the expense of the Quality Assurance programs that make that kind of manufacturing too expensive to undertake in Australia.
