if anything at all, you gain even more experience building.These build kits were only 219 bucks, i can see why. the ceracote (if that's what it is) is very thin and easy to chip off. the aluminum is cheap and probably wouldn't hold up to hard abuse. thought i'd try them and see. i won't buy another though. i need to sight them in and see if the FRT's in them work. both have Arc fire's. but not today.
mistakes happen, and better to scratch a cheaper unit than a high dollar one.
