I must say that although I was slightly disappointed in the RBL, maybe due to my own unreasonable expectations, their followup on a damage to the forend wood (which turned out to be my fault)was incredible. They made a new forend with no questions asked and rather quickly. They are stand up guys and I would guess they are overwhelmed on many fronts, probably never expecting to sell so many RBLs that overloaded all the facets of their business. I would not hesitate to buy from them again. If it was a used gun, I would spend a lot of time on the phone with them before deciding to buy. They are putting the price on the gun and quickly racking it and advertising it. They are not looking it over in enough detail. I am sure they will catch up and this will be a thing of the past.
For those of you who missed my last warning:
When putting the forearm on the barrels before placing it in the case it is easy to not line up the forearm in the right place (It should not be a problem when the barrels are on the action) which causes the little ears of wood at the rear of the forearm to hit the barrel flat and chip it off.
