    So wait. Early ones have higher serial numbers? No sure I get it...

    Youza.

    Isn't 4xx early? How many were in the first run?

    Sorry, got all confused.

    Mine is in the mid 300s, and the finish has pretty much zero issues. So when you said you had a 4xx one that had issues, I thought that it was indicative that yours had the earlier, ####tier finish before it got resolved, and that mine was part of the later good batch, so I wasnt understanding the whole thing.

    All good. I guess I should clarify it's not terrible. Like I would probably give it like an 8 out of 10. It's not the same quality of finish you're going to find on a large-scale manufacturer like Colt or Bushmaster. It's more than acceptable. After reading about the problems with the early numbers I was expecting the worst.

    Yours is the first report I have seen of a serial in the 400 range, so I would say it is quite late.

    I guess you have never owned a Colt or Bushmaster because their latest offerings would score a 5-6 if your lucky.

    I bought a Bushmaster QRC in May. I'd say the finish was pretty good overall.

    They still haven't fixed that? There's only Class 1 and Class 2. No such thing as Class 3. I think what they meant was, Type 3 Class 2.
