Ditto! I'd love to see the part in question.
So, is the RFB all that we thought it'd be?

.30-30 or 7mm are pretty sweet deer guns, no? 
I'm one of the unfortunate ones... Welds broke on one side, i'd say about 200 rounds through the barrel. But it was handled quickly by Vault, and a new dustcover/spring already in the mail.. So RFB will be up and running for deer season.
The new part is already made differently, no welds, I think it's milled or something.
I still love this rifle, and happy that I have it
i think it has been said already but the rfb's we got up here to begin with were early models with non upgraded bolt carriers. there was a known problem and new updated bolt carriers have arrived in canada as of last friday (or this is what vault has told me)
i should have mine in a few days hopefully and i am also still happy with it

The Canuck RFB's were early RFB'S extensively tested (prior to the flaws being discovered).
ALL ours are suffering including the supposed generation 2.
The real generation 2 parts have only just recently arrived -
ALL the Kanuck RFB'S have the weldment problem -
No rifles with the correct fix have been shipped to Kanada -
And I believe no gen2 {or very few} have been shipped stateside.
Our fix parts have been slow because I believe all the fix parts have AmeriKa priority -
Nothing makes a person look quite a stupid and without any credibility as using "Kanuck", "Kanada", "Amerika" etc. Ranks up with "Shotty" and "Remmy".

Wow, that was a bit harsh, no? Does somebody need a hug.....?
I like the comment about the RFB being the XCR of bullpups. An overpriced, sub-par gun whose only appeal is being non-restricted and a new "evil black gun" that's not on an OIC.
I feel badly for those that first bought them expecting they'd be great only to discover they shoot no more accurately than an SKS but cost 15 times as much, and ammo four times as much. Damn....

I would also really like to see a picture of an older weldment to be able to tell if I have a new or old style. Anyone able to help?

Touch me and I yell rape!

It may need an education about facetiousness and political comment more than a hug.
For its edification -
The K in Kanuckistan, Kanada, Kommyland, Korporate AmeriKa, Kapitalist etc. refers to -
Never mind - it wouldn't understand -
As expected the RFBers come out brandishing pitchforks in their defense. I suppose if I sank three grand into a piston driven gun that can only shoot as accurately as a $400 Norinco M-14 (better comparison?) I'd be defensive too.
And I quite enjoy my SKS being an SKS, but nice try anyhow. My CZ on the other hand I pretend is an AK.
