First of all, I'm a lawyer. You might think of me as scum, but it would be advisable for you to keep your insults to yourself on this board.

Second, you'd be very happy to have a good lawyer on your side if you got into a legal pickle -- such as could happen if you had to use your gun in what you believed to be self defense.

Third, the issue raised by post 24 was suing the gunsmith. Whether or not that would be a viable option depends on what the law is, not on what your personal standards are.
