    DP marked pressure baring parts being recirculated back into new builds, what could possibly go wrong!

    Well, we see these posts regularly, just had one asking if these were safe to shoot. Once they've been stripped completely, who's to know? Once you read the directive for their manufacture from sub standard parts including wood, you no longer have any doubts.
