I just got my "factory defect" extractor model last night. I was super impressed by the quality of the Turkish walnut stock and handguard. I love the patterning of the wood on the stock I recieved and it was finished well. The lockup was VERY tight...I took it apart and I thouroughly cleaned it and got all the grit and finishing particles from the action and the locking lugs. Gave a good barrel cleaning. After lubing and cleaning it out, the break action was still very tight and needs a little *tap* to open but it definitely better than before. My one gripe is the break open lever never fully resets to the center and it is always rotated to the right. Other than that...I am very happy with my *factory defect*
