[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2663095, member: 116181"] I have to Bergarbage B-14s... they both came with the highly sought-after factory-installed "rusted and pitted bore" option. I found rust in the first one, and after a luke-warm response from their support line I bought a second one just to prove that I can take the rifle out of the box, run a scope down it, and the factory chro-mo barrel has rust and pits in it. And they can't do a thing to make me stop saying this - the truth is an absolute defense. Their response was tough titty, zero warranty for any rust [U]even if it came out of the box that way[/U]. Zero give-a- 💩 that their packaging is resulting in rusted bores, it's not their problem. The 1moa accuracy guarantee still applies, if it shoots better than an inch at 100 it's [U]your problem[/U]. They did recommend I use a stainless steel bore brush and an ammonia based bore cleaner and go to town on the bore. They'd rebarrel the rifles if I paid them to do it, but oh BTW we're backlogged six months on barrels so we've suspended the rebarreling program and won't work on the rifles if I send them in. Garbage rifles from a garbage company. All they had to do was say "yeah that's not acceptable to sell a rusted rifle, we'll make that right" but they refused.
