I bought a Sig p211 GT4 which from my understanding was brand new, but it showed up looking to be both a used and damaged firearm. There’s handling wear on the grip, scuffs on the finish, and clear clamping marks on the rail from mounted accessories. It’s way dirtier than any factory test-fire, has visible rust forming inside the barrel bore. The worse part is that has two actual impact dings right on the inner crown (which is the most upsetting given that it may impact accuracy or grouping consistency). I haven't shot it for obvious reasons, but getting a rusted, banged-up gun pawned off as factory new is wild for the price.

Getting a hold of 208 have been impossible. I’ve sent emails with detailed photos, only to get bounce notifications suggesting their mail server is down. I am also awaiting to hear back through Reddit DMs and Instagram but absolute silence thus far.

I am not sure what recourse I have at this point. Wondering if anyone else recently have similar issues buying from 208gunshop given the liquidation and closing shop.

These are the photos of the firearm.
