You must have been looking at the cream of the crop for the Blue Sky imports. The local shop ordered 15 or 20 when they first hit the market, and down to the last rifle, they were worn out. The bores were trash, and the rifles were so worn the op-rods would jump out of the track when pulled back. As Orlando suggested, go for the CMPicon rifles. Whether the import stamp hurts or not, it is still debatable, and the CMP rifles don't have the stamp.
