| That barrel is thin, below acceptable thicknesses, throughout most of it's length. |

| Update: Griffin and Howe refunded the purchase price but not the shipping. So...basically I paid $130 for their mistake of relisting a gun that had already failed safety inspection once before I also flunked it. Keep and eye out for this gun, in case they list it for sale a third time. Serial# 97138 |

WyoChukar,
This is what has happened to a once great Sports company, they should have covered the shipping also! The product they sold was faulty.

The steel filled epoxy to fill the solder void was the first red flag with this gun.
Wyo,
I once used the stuff to patch a leak in a 14 ft jon boat, and it is still holding. But on a firearm? A red flag for sure.
And the $130? A buddy had a name for those kinds of non-ruinous regrettable expenses inflicted on us: Tuition.

| Wow folks, this just keeps getting crazier. The refund check that G&H sent? It's not signed. Seriously. I called accounting today and they offered to mail another check. I told them that after having my money tied up for a month, that was no longer an acceptable solution. They are allegedly wire transferring the money directly to my bank today. I sure hope that doesn't get screwed up too because right now, they are batting 1000. |
