everyone makes mistakes...
they are feast or famine.. I've seen 2 in my life, one worked flawlessly, one was a jam-o-matic..
Now, the jam-o-matic might of been someone's perception, lack of care, or a legit complaint..
I have a browning gold hunter 3 inch that I've shot 5000 + times, and have never ever had an issue with.. Some people call them junk, but I love mine..
If the price is right, give it a shot..
