A good friend of mine worked in the auto industry for a good while. Mostly in the repair side. He has a great saying about warranties.
"Some car companies have good warranties because they can. Some have good warranties because they need to."

No dude is going to get shot in the chest at 300 yards and look down and say "What is that, a 3 MOA group?"
I agree with you 200%. But it's hard trying to explain that to some one hung up on the cost alone and has never owned more than a hand-me-down 22 or shotgun.
They'll usually come back with "I'll just pick one up that's laying around". Then I'll tell them it won't work because those will be the low end ones with the same worn out,locked up or broken parts.

Not to beat up on the OP at all but it seems like you are asking for justification to your odd purchase. I personally would expect you to be more involved in the thread if you really cared and wanted to learn. I drive past quite a few CORE advertising bulletins on my way to Gainesville, Florida and guess what, if I was searching for a Colt and got sold that bag of "goodies" at that price; I would be kicking myself in the arse. Who here really is going to argue with IraqGunz or even more Grant over what constitutes a quality firearm and why they command the prices that they do. I feel bad for the gentleman, he paid MORE for an okay rifle than a great rifle costs.
Bottom line is,what's done is done. Most LGS's won't do returns and sales are final. No sence taking a beating trading it off and end up spending more yet (once out the door it's used). Take it out and run the living daylights outa it and see how well the manufacture backs up their product and use this as a learning experience while you're saving up and doing research on your next perchase. Don't baby it,but take care of it like you should. Don't believe all the BS some sales person feeds you. Most are out to make a sale and could care less if they ever see you again once it's made and you are out the door (their big mistake). What percent of people actually come back and buy more than one gun ???

I have 3 LGS's that love seeing me come in the door with a friend. They know I have a good sale walking in with me.and I never walk out empty handed either. Buy to last and it only cost a couple extra $$$ to go first class. Been working with them for years and have always been taken well care of for my efforts.

Making blanket statements about a whole group of people based on one person's words does not connote honor, nor integrity. It was one person's opinion. You know better than to say what you did....or do two wrongs make a right these days?Wow. I guess honor and integrity means nothing here anymore.

I though long and hard before making that post. It was directed at the person that made the post advising the OP to do a dishonest act in order to get something else. The moderators have in the past advised members to go to the manufacturer before gong public with issues. The post I am refering to advised the OP to do something that goes against the rules of this forum.
