Damn good thing you didn't have it loaded at the time.....Otherwise it'd be a $1200 paperweight. How would you ship a loaded firearm back to S&W?
Similar dillema: I had a bolt that wouldn't open on a new Tikka after having a scope mounted at Cabela's. They wouldn't let me in the door to fix it because the bolt wouldn't open. I got lucky and was able to get it open after some serious reefing on the bolt handle once home. I found lock tite all over the bolt where it had leaked through the tapped mounting holes in the reciever. Not 100% sure what I'd have done if I hadn't gotten it open.
Took it back the next day and exchanged it for a Sako.
Good luck, hope it comes back quickly.
