Ordered a MVP LC and it finally came in 2 weeks ago.
Right out of the box I noticed that the Barrel was not centered in the chassis, not even close, the action looked straight, but not the barrel. Crossed my fingers that this was just a cosmetic issue.
Get scope mounted, go to bore sight... super low and to the right... huh odd. In order to bore sight it at 20 yards in the back yard i had to nearly max out the elevation adjustment all the way up and the windage most of the way to the left.
Suspected mounting issue, took apart, tried again, same. tried a different scope and rings.. same.
Off to the range, quite nervous now.
After 2 hours, 120 rounds of different kinds of ammo and 2 different scopes. we could not even keep it on paper at 50 yards shooting off of sand bags.. Only 1 5 shot group where all rounds found paper, and the "group" was about 12".. at 50 yards..
Another strange issue was that when cycling and testing the trigger, it was EXCELLENT. However, after firing a live round and then cycling the bolt.. about 30% of the time when pulling the trigger on the next shot there would be a click.. but nothing.. then you had to keep pulling on the trigger very hard, to the point that a few times I thought I left the safety on.. eventually after probably 20 pounds of force the gun would fire. Checked to make sure not a lube problem, its not.
Shipped it back to mossberg, no idea when I will get it back, actually not sure I want it back, not the same gun anyway... hopefully they replace it.
Anybody have an idea what the typical turn around is on something like this? They have had it since 10-2
