[QUOTE="Rubberduck270, post: 5726393, member: 9199"] They have some hits and misses in my opinion. The BDL fit and finish is spot on. Bluing and bolt jeweling is very much like that of the 80s and early 90s. The SPS models are still matte blued (better than the early 2000s when that first came about) and they jeweled over the bluing on the bolt which makes it look like an after thought. Polishing the bolt body before jeweling would have been the way to go about that (as the BDLs are) so that's definitely a miss. The SPS stock also still sucks but if you're going to customize/upgrade it anyways it's perfect quality to toss in the corner and collect dust. Them teaming up with Timney is a giant hit that should have been done years ago. Once they get on board and start chambering for some of the newer cartridges, they'll be back to being competitive in the sales department (IMO anyways). [/QUOTE]
