Discovered something disturbing about the Robbot ZNA I bought from FocalCig.
Being the perfectionist that I am I wanted to smooth out the edges of the "316" main unit where it meets the tube section. It was rather sharp so it was a minor detail that I wanted to attend to.
Upon filing down the edges some I notice that the "316" steel started to Bubble then flake off, this is what I found underneath:
Decided to buff the sides to see what I'm actually working with here.
I worked with metals for over 20 years and there is no way 316 steel is suppose to look like this:
Notice the copper color undertones.....
Tried the magnet test on the mod too, 316 Stainless Steel is supose to be non-magnetic, as you can see a magnet sticks to it just fine:
So this is rather disheartening, for a mod that touts itself as a 1:1 Clone with 316L Stainless Steel body, it certainly doesnt show the characteristics of 316 Steel
So what do you think? Have you ever seen 316 Stainless Steel like this??
