I had a bad experience with a new Uggie. I won't mention the dealer cause he has to make a living like the rest of us and I'm sure most are fine with his product and service. Occasionally a Spanish gun gets slapped together and doesn't get the quality inspection it should before it leaves the factory. You probably got one of those guns. I know I did and I returned it immediately and ask for a refund. That's exactly what you should do as others have suggested.
I'm comfortable buying used with a return guarantee. Hill Rod and Gun and Thad Scott both offer this. Look for a Brit or a German BLNE gun built between the wars. All you have to do is look at how the barrels are struck on a new Spanish gun and one of the older guns in the same price range. That quality, or lack of, goes all the way through the gun. That goes for the wood also. New is not always better.
