I ordered a 28 gauge O/U from Midway and they shipped a 20 gauge. The stock/receiver was the correct serial number for what I ordered, but the barrels were wrong. CZ Drake... Now, we will see how they handle it. Glad I had it sent to my buddy who is FFL and it was caught before transfer!

Keep the 20 ga barrels and tell em to ship 28 ga barrels. If they are interchangeable, boom two guns! Problem is, the 28 ga is now out of stock. Fortunately, I now have a line on a better deal than Midway was offering. Hoping to just have FFL send back for a refund!

Well, here's an update. Midway returned the gun they sent to me with 20 ga barrels. My buddy, ffl, ordered one through his supplier for me. He, explicitly, told them to open the box and make sure it is a 28 gauge, before shipping. He received an email today, all 26 of the CZ Drake 28 gauges they had in stock had 20 gauge barrels in the box. It appears, CZ has a bit of a quality control problem!

That causes a bit of a logistical problem for the manafactuer to get the correct barrels to all the guns in stores. Easiest , cheapest way to fix that would be a fire sale on 20ga guns. Keep your eyes open....lol
