It is Sunday guys a lot of this happened on the weekend, i do not think Knight is home on the weekends. I guess I figured there would be further work on this early this week, once they (Knight) gets by the Monday morning rush.

I believe Knight will, no I am sure Knight will want a satisfied customer and I am willing to lay a glove down that Knight will fix this problem or any other problem as they have in the past and will do in the future.

But, before we hang 'em let's let them come back to work.

Someone earlier in the thread made mention of the fact that these parts should have never made it out of the building, which I think everyone can agree with, but do we know how the mess up occurred - that is what I am betting is going to be the hot topic at Knight - not whether they need to repair/replace what has been done - that is the automatic part of the process. How do they keep it happening again is the problem that the company leaders will need to address.

The other thing that comes to mind, I am betting a buck that chetmarks, never thought this thread would go quite so negative so fast... He honestly just put up a picture and more less asked 'do you think this is right' Not sure he has even had time to address the issure with Knight himself - well he couldn't it is the weekend.

We are all stressed out about the bolts and I think some have overlooked the other part of the story in that the recoil lug on one gun might be canted a bit or out of place.

It would be my suggestion instead of throwing daggers - we give everyone a couple of working days to deal with the problems. If they are not handled to satisfaction - then we have plenty of time to discuss the bad things.

But, none of this reduces the fact that the problems should not made it out of the building in the first place - but unfortunately it happens....

I could tell you of a recent Office Depot problem i had tht would have you all shaking your heads and throwing daggers...

Give them time to work together...

The other thing if the cast bolts had been to standard we would not be having this conversation... And I do not blame Knight or any company using existing supplies before moving to the new supply - if the existing supplies are up to standard...
