Damn it!!! Folder is bent. Looks like it was made that way. Boxes were in perfect condition and everything was zip tied down tightly. Just poor quality control! Fixed stock seems ok, if not ever so slightly off centre. Can't really tell. I'll keep it. Should be ok. Folder is going back though! :(

Barrel on the folder points right as you look down the barrel!!!

I am very nervous now. Mine is being delivered tomorrow but I won't get it until Tuesday. I hope its not bent.
 
Not good. They definitely won’t have a significant amount of extras to replace them if this isn’t an isolated incident. Fingers crossed, I haven’t even received tracking yet. I’m late to the game, I ordered in September. My fear is that later orders will be pushed for replacements of defective units. Although I understand it, I’d be less then pleased about it.
 
Everyone with problematic rifles need to take a picture of their serial number or posting their serial numbers to make sure we don't get these rifles recycled to new users

So do you mean that as in the actual barrels bent, or the receiver is bent where the barrel mates with it ?

It would be the straw that sees me cancelling the order completely.

Receiver bent where the forward trunion sits. Someone already posted a pic of this issue in the bent rifle thread.

This seems to be the issue with mine as well! Seems like when the receiver was pinned to the barrel assembly, it wasn't aligned correctly and is pointing to the right at this location.
 
Got my folder to the range today. 100% function. Didn’t go for groups but was whacking the gong at 150 3/5 times without bags. Can’t do that on my un-scoped sks’s. I think this gun is begging for optics.
 
this bent barrel thing could be it for me too... if some day I get the rifle.. and its bent.. for sure it will go back and I will be looking for my money back! Never will I wait for TI to get another back to me!
