1. The burrs are SHARP. They will cut skin. If this is in a holster, it will cut the elbow area. 2. This is a NEW gun, it should not have this issue. 3. Because.

I seriously doubt it. It would have to have been dropped from the exact height (or whatever) to create the same depth gouge on each side of the hammer in the exact same location. It must be a tooling mark or something like that.

I wonder if I can just talk them into sending me a new hammer? Its just cosmetic...

Will call Monday. Thanks for the input.
