I bought two of these about eight months ago and both of them had to have the front & rear sights drifted/adjusted to get 'em on target - there wasn't enough adjustment in the rear sight alone. Chucking the barrels between centers in a lathe and using a dial indicator showed both barrels to be bent! I returned both of them to Remington and one was repaired by straightening the barrel, but they said the other one couldn't be fixed, and no more .38-55 barrels were available, so they bought it back. The returned one is better than it was, but still requires rather extreme sight adjustment. Both were quite accurate as they were, and the repaired one still is, but the sights were drifted about as far as they could go to get them on target. Anyone else have one of these and have the same problem? FWIW, the s/n's were more than thirty thousand numbers apart, which might not mean anything - H&R may not have used sequential numbering or numbering may have been spread out among different models.
