Dear WLS
Question from Ben B from Kansas
Ben B (TLDR from last week: Bought a Bergara B14-HMR that wouldn’t group and had a crooked-looking scope. After replacing the rail, rings, and checking the scope, a gunsmith finally discovered the rifle’s mounting holes were drilled at a 45° angle from the factory. The manufacturing defect that made proper alignment impossible.)Continuation of the story from where it cut off last week-
We looked in there and about half the threaded hole in the receiver was visible through the rail. Well shit… We tried a different rail and it was the same. I decided to contact Bergara to see if they would fix it. I started a warranty case with them and they sent an RMA form and asked me to ship the rifle to them. I sent it over and assumed that everything would be straightened out. After several weeks with zero updates, I called and asked for some kind of information. I even gave them exact instructions on how to replicate the problem. They said they would update me when they got it into their system and when they got started on the inspections. After they had it for a month they finally shipped it back and their conclusion was that the rifle was in spec. About a million emails later and both sides being stubborn, I gave up. Obviously they weren’t going to fix it and I was at my
wit’s end. I brought it back to the gunsmith and had him drill and re tap the receiver holes to a big enough size to line it up. In spec my ass. Ever since then the Bergara name has left a bad taste in my mouth. I’m not really on social media and don’t know how to get through how bad of an experience I had with them because I think people need to know.
I am sorry for the long story but I already left a lot of details out. Just remember you asked for this Shawn

Question from Coward with anonymity from Virginia. I know you have probably said it a hundred times, but I have no experience with 3d printing. What is the best starter printer that’s user friendly and capable. Great show, thanks!
Question from Peter J from WA
Peter J from WA, Dear WLS, I’m interested in either buying a factory ported pistol or having one I own custom ported. Is it really worth the hype? Im debating on either getting a CZ ported P10c or getting my CZ P10F ported. Use case would be more for range but would carry the ported p10c since I carry a non ported one currently. I more than with do what Jeremy or Nick tell me what to do. Thanks
Question from eTexNerd from Texas
Dear wls, from eTexNerdFirst a big Ole howdy from the upper east side of Texas to Tom Bowers!
Question: once Bowers group is running production in Texas, won’t I be able to buy his suppressors without federal redtape? I think Texas passed a law to allow intrastate transfer of suppressots
