Yeah I'm not really sure what's going on with it; even the firing pin and Geladen writing is blued. I dunno, honestly. Very irritating. Again, live and learn haha

I think I've put about 80 rounds thru it myself. Not much more than that. These photos are right after I shot it (haven't cleaned it yet). Fires OK, shoots high and to the left at 15 yards, gets casings stuck in the toggle, and sometimes the hold open doesn't work.
