or somthing else.
The issue has been passed onto Savage but I wouldn't mind some opinions on the condition of this bolt. Due to local laws I do not have the gun yet and didn't have the camera with me the day I went to do the paper work. Will be heading back out with the camera this week to take some pics of the rifle, which is in similar condition. This post is not aimed at Savage or any one else but simply to see if any one has seen a new gun in this condition. At this stage I am trying to work out if this is "dirty" (I have seen a few reports of some being shipped like this) or if some other "issue" has happened to this rifle before I bought it as new :)
Best to open the pics and look at them in full size. Of course, I have cut them back to make it faster. More detail on the higher res pics and the bolt looks a lot worse in real life.
It's not just the bolt either
