First of all this is the WRONG place to post this! Secondly, I find it EXTREMELY hard to believe SAM sold someone a new hacked up kit that was poorly made. You honestly are not in the "know" because if you where you would know this is the farthest from what GTM represents and what conditions their products are in. If Sam said it was damaged by shipping then it was damaged by shipping. I have Detailed pics of my first kit when it arrived and I will tell you every piece down to bolts was individually packaged!!! Then they were packaged in groups by part and then boxed as a kit piece. Not a single product have I gotten from GTM ever looked like a hacksaw came within a hundred yards of it.

I understand your concern for your friend and the kit he purchased from GTM. GTM has always been stand up in making sure things are fixed and made right. Destiny just talk to Sam and send him the pictures. He will fix what ever issue your having with parts. It took me nearly an hour to unpack everything with my first kit. Your in good hands and I as the rest of us know you will be taken care of.

Enough with the off topic banter.

I am asking if you do not have anything specific to this build please do not post.

Thank you!
