I have examined the gun again,and other than the slightly misaligned beads,I can see no faults at all in the gun.As to the misalignment of beads,it is not something that everyone will even notice.In fact the front bead is very close to center,with the rear bead being about .020" closer to one side of the rib than the other.I saw it because I work in a field where I deal with very close tolerances.The reality is that many people would likely not notice it.
Comparing the gun to my Citori did reveal a very slightly better fit and finish for the Browning,but had the beads been perfect on the FAIR,the difference would be extremely small.The point of my review was not to bash the FAIR,but more to compare the fit and finish of the FAIR and the Citori.
