After work proceeded hastily to local FFL to pick up my new 1866 deluxe in 44-40. The brass had what appeared to be woodstain all over the butt plate and part of the receiver. Wouldn't come off with Brasso. So called Bud's and the operator is processing a return and replacement. I commented it shouldn't have shipped like that, didn't someone look at it? She says "when the guns arrive we don't want to tamper with them." I asked her to make sure someone tampers with (inspects) the replacement before shipping.
