There is chatter around the hammer pin hole, like it wasnt deburred. (nitpicking maybe)
The receiver extension is weird as it has a step down before the castle nut, and the finish is poor.
Bcg staking is substandard.
This isn’t an $800 AR on sale for $500, it’s just an AR for $500
Side note though, the Magpul BTR brace is better than I expected.
I bought the same pistol about a week ago. I just looked it over, and only saw 1 cosmetic issue similar to yours. A "miniscule" amount of "chaff" at the sight/gas block pin". I'd have never noticed, if you'd not said something. This was a "spare", & for $500.00, who care's? I'm going to do a few "upgrades", & it'll be a "work grade pistol". I've got several, including nicer/other brands/more $$ spent, SO NO big deal. I just like the fact, they offer lower cost options.
This land abounds in ruffians and varmints. Their numbers are legion, their evil skills commensurate.
