coolhand, mine is actually pretty nice. There were some smudges and other marks that came right off during my first cleaning. Sorry, I don't have any pics.
The paint looks pretty good in my opinion, a lot better than some of the earlier ones where the paint was so thick you couldn't make out some of the lettering.
I shot 3 types of FMJ through it, about 250 rds total, and it worked perfectly. It's not much fun to shoot as a pistol, so I'm waiting for my Form 1 to be approved.
I have only two minor gripes: My SWR Trident 9 wouldn't fit at first, as the 3-lug adapter would hit the front sight post (the adapter's circumference was too wide), but I've got that working now. The second gripe is the wobbly selector knobs. They work fine, but they definitely feel "cheap".
Overall, I think it was a good buy.
