I could send it back to Brownells, for what, $7 shipping? I could "make" JP take it back? I dunno, the juice isn't worth the squeeze, and I don't feel I was dealt poorly with, so meh. I dunno. Maybe I'll ask to trade it for some of their gas rings, which actually did perform great for me.
You're right, I guess it is what it is but I just don't think it should rust inside the plastic bag. And I also agree on shipping back if you have to pay. IMO JP should take the springs back because they are rusting inside the sealed plastic bag - but if they don't, it wouldn't be worth my time or money.
Thanks for the info. Much appreciated!!
