This was after just a couple weeks, it got worse. Web area, trigger guard.
The extractor hole was drilled out oval, so you could wiggle the extractor (after removing some burrs it functioned fine).
The front sight was molded crooked, you could see the left side of the blade when sighting, but it was dovetailed and blind pinned in place, so no easy replacement.
The rear sight blade was also molded poorly (molded, not machined), so the sight picture was poor.
The 'hand checkering' should have been left to machines, mine had a lot of cross overs in the lines.
Accurate? yes, well fitted too, very tight. It was just very disappointing to plunk down 2 grand and get such crappy sights and thin blueing. I could have lived with the rest.
Note the Iowa marks, Illinois was better.
