Got my Wanstalls 2nd run 12" Alaskan Scout Takedown today. Excitedly unboxed it and was shocked at the state of the rifle:
There is absolutely no oil or grease on the gun. It is bone dry. It looks like the little brown spots are the beginning of corrosion. They are small pits in the finish. I applied a touch of G96 to one little spot and it didn't take it off.
After spending $1400 on a brand new gun this is shocking. It looks used and put away wet. There were no O2 absorption packets in the box.
Does anyone else's look like this? This is the first hard-chromed finished firearm I've purchased, is this normal?
