call Remington and ask for a call tag for shipping and have them replace it. I've had really good luck with browning i bought a 20ga upland special from wholesale sports and bumped the bottom of the butt stock and it split so i called them they said send it in . also have had good luck with Ruger i had a blued vaquero that i had left under my bed in it's factory case and it rusted badly and they replaced the bbl, grip frame, cylinder and ejector rod housing. free of charge on both guns . but you do have to ask for the call tag to get free shipping.
