    If your bore isn't dirty on a brand new gun you best send it back to the factory no matter what brand it is. Why? Because every manufacturer I know proof-tests the barrel and function tests every gun they make before it ships from the factory and they never, ever clean the bores (ok, Blazer and Dakota might - maybe that's how they justify their crazy prices).

    Of course, but this was pretty darn dirty. I guess that is a good sign? Perhaps it was fired with a good bit of oil in the bore. I dunno - I've owned military mausers that cleaned up more easily. Anyway, time will tell. I'm no great shooter so I'm sure its capable of more accuracy than I am.
