    I have noticed already that the camo comes off real easy and it's white underneath.
    Yeah mate they got a terrible factory coating that needs to be sealed on with something grunty or replaced altogether... Mines been pulled apart, stripped clean and run through the anodizer thingy at Outdoor Supplies in Carterton. couple hundred dollars but it came up a wicked silky black that seems so far indestructible. I've attacked the stock with warehouse spraypaint and got a black rubbery grip, reckon it looks ok. Could do with a wee suppressor like that though!

    I reckon they should replace it, no questions. It would show good customer service because yours clearly has a problem and it can be almost seen on the outside of the barrel theres that much copper.
