So..... stake it then?
Unless you want a vampire girlfriend, then don't stake it. |

Young Manufacturing doesn't stake at all, and tells you exactly why they don't.

That's nice that they made it easy for you to disassemble and inspect upon arrival.

Send that thing back. They are probably busy so post in their industry forum and tag them.
And staking matters Young manufacturing is full of shit. |

I still have a Bushmaster BCG from the late ‘90s that was “improperly” staked and is still good after thousands of rounds.
OP, if it concerns you, just stake it yourself. Easy job with a $7 spring-loaded punch. |

With everything being rushed right now, expect QC issues on almost everything.
ETA I ordered 10 PSA Nitrided ones when they were $59 back in June. All staking is way better than that. Waiting till they hit $200 and dump them |

I’d say it’s a Toolcraft issue but someone at PSA should have at least looked at the damn thing before throwing it in the box considering they had 9 days to check it. I was planning another order for some stuff tonight. So much for that now. |

Maybe I'm wrong but feel TC has been a bit overrated since day 1 really. They were hot out the gate cause they were $75. I've had 3 of em, one was out of spec, bad. Other 2 GTG though. Never owned another cheap BCG since.
