Needs quality control - Faxon Firearms 16in Legal, SLIM Perm Flash Hider,4.5in GUNNER, 5.56 NATO, Mid-Length, 4150 QPQ Barrel

First let me say I love faxon barrels this is my 3rd one but there is an issue on quality here for a 250 dollar barrel. Scratches, rust on the locking lugs, the tines on the flash hider were not cut evenly each one is a different length. But on the good side it did fit perfectly and does group nicely. Just wish I spotted the imperfections before I installed it and broke the barrel in. But they are just cosmetic issues and the Finish on the lugs would have worn off over time anyway. Just dissatisfied with both faxon for letting this get through and for opticsplanet for not looking over a part before shipping it out.
