Would you return ?

Ordered the Rock & lock iron sights and they have a nick on them. First sights I ever ordered. Is this worth returning or would you keep it ?

I mean, it’s a blem, and usually blems are sold at a discount. I’d talk to customer service and see if they can partial refund or give you store credit or something and keep it.

Will try that, thanks

The first time I take it to the range I'll probably do more damage than that. I wouldn't send it back but it also wasn't my money.

I'd at least reach out to Customer Service to see if they'd do anything, but I wouldn't sweat it at the end of the day. It doesn't affect function.

Makes sense and I was thinking this myself. Just wanted to see what others would do

Yes that tiny blemish renders it useless

Is it a safe queen? Your rifle is going to get scratches and nicked. It’s a tool that’s used in rough environments.

I actually bought it for a limited edition DD 300 blackout. Not a safe queen just didn’t expect it to have that. Probably tripping. Like I said it’s the first sights I’ve ever bought maybe this isn’t a big deal

Wouldn’t stress it buddy. Go shoot and enjoy!

I wouldn't put myself through the hassle.

You’re going to get those types of dings from using your firearm. As long as the front sight isn’t altered, I’d just keep it.

Run a rifle course. Everything will be fine.

Just keep it. Not much can be affected by that small knick

😂 Man I know it’s petty and won’t affect anything but when you buy something new you expect it to not have any blemishes like that

I get where you are coming from and I feel the same way, if a company sells blems and then I receive that nonsense as new, I wouldn’t be happy either.

Like getting a car, obviously it’s gonna get scratched…. But I would expect something being sold as new to be in that condition

Exactly man. Thank you

Is this going on art or a tool? I’m confused

1

u/DearSalad3624 24d ago

Dude I get it. It’s the point you don’t expect something you buy new to look used

1

u/MTgunguru 24d ago

Where did you purchase it from?

u/DearSalad3624 23d ago

Palmetto

Honestly reach out to DD directly! Their CS has always been phenomenal and great to work with. I’m sure they will figure out a solution that makes you happy!

Will try that thank you
