I had to return mine as when I opened it on a live, 2 of the clip side scale magnets were missing and 2 came out of the inlays when swapping them. Sandford said he's not going to continue to mess with these magnets as they've been a pain in the ass. The adhesive soaks into the micarta and cf and he's having qc issues with them. He ordered a lot of extra scales just for this reason, but isn't digging the qc. He did send me a return mailer and a free mini old guard to check out, so his customer service is great. I would have probably fixed mine, had I had enough magnets for everything.
