I just got a new upper from grabagun. I already have a DDM4V5 rifle and I have to say the fit and finish is amazing. When I took the V9 upper out of the box last night I noticed there was a large blemish above the dust cover but there isn't a blemish in the finish it looks like a large occlusion or bunch of craters in the actual metal itself, like it happened during casting and then was phosphated over. I'm REALLY surprised that this got past their QA/QC as they have such a great rep and I have another upper of thiers, like I said flawless in every way.
I did contact DD warranty directly and left a message but I know some of these companies do not deal with "cosmetic" issues. Anyone have any experience with their warranty department? The company has a great rep, and that's one of the reasons I chose to purchase their fine products. I offered to pay all shipping costs or whatever it took. I just want an umblemished upper!
