I use my rifles for hunting and dings are going to happen . If I ding it or a smallish ding when I buy it's no biggie for me as it will pick up more in time .

Its a tool for me and tools get used .
Well I didn't expect to be hammered so hard over this, being called names and saying I'm crying etc
I did say above maybe a hunter wouldn't bother so much.

I'm sorry for not liking dented stocks from new out the shop.
I will change my attitude and conform to the masses.
I will from now on not worry about dents in new guns, infact I'll actively hunt them out and buy the most dented I can find.
If I'm really lucky I'll find one that even cost well over the RRP and dented to hell and back

I'll leave it there as it seems people actually like buying new guns with scratches and dents, sorry for wasting posters time.
