I just received some new Surefire components (LU60A and M2 bezel) from a reputable dealer that exhibit the following: rough internal threads (tears a swab to shreds) and/or slightly chipped hard anodizing on the sharp edges. The dealer packed them well for transit and assures me that they were sent to me just as he received them from SF.
Neither will affect function, but I hate spending a premium for Surefire and getting parts that do not meet my expectations of quality.
I'm debating on sending them back to Surefire for exchange. I already have a return authorization number, but am hesitant to return them. I don't want to be unrealistic in my expectations if this represents normal QC practices for Surefire.
What are your experiences?
p.s. how long does SF usually take for exchanges of this nature?
