Recently had a new Turkish double from an American manufacturer (who shall go nameless to avoid bad press)come into the shop. Asked why it hadn't been picked up yet.
Well, it was but there were problems.
Finish was good as was the fit but I noticed that the recoil pad was delaminating. Turns out though, that wasn't all.

Neither mainspring was installed.
If I remember correctly there was another part missing as well.
Cocking lever maybe?

Amazing.
