Lancaster AK-74 issue---Update 4-17-10
I received my AK74 back from Lancaster yesterday, and was able to take it out to the farm this morning for a try-out. And the good news is: no more key-holing. I ran four magazines through it with no problems whatsoever, and the fit and finish of the rifle is still fantastic.
That being said, it did take a little over a month to get the rifle fixed, and might have taken longer without the assistance of Blaine over at Atlantic Firearms, who stepped in to help and once again upheld AF's excellent reputation (Thanks again!)
I'm not sure what Lancaster's situation is, but I hope they get things resolved. John Goldin at Lancaster assured me that they will honor their lifetime warranties on their rifles, and I'll keep my finger's crossed that I don't need it again. I also hope that Lancaster stays in business...
