Yup, the note from the smith just says "Sorry for the inconvenience". lol. I feel like maybe the hulk was working the bench the day my gun was assembled.

Well, that was anti-climactic. Gun was sent back with "Sorry for the inconvenience" on the RMA note. lol. No complaints. Hate brake is off and I can begin the fun =D Thank you everyone on this topic that replied. I appreciate it. I owe ya all some beers if ya come to vegas.

They have received the gun. I await their phone call.

FYI I had a long talk with one of the guys at (Jason) MAXIM defense today about the hate brake. He has said he saw a few brakes on there pretty good that took a breaker bar to get them loose but was in agreement with me, if it is stuck on there that hard, send it to SA and have them do it. I...

That is epic bro. Thank you so much. There is def something up with mine for sure.

Boo. =( Hehe. Thanks for the awesome support guys. Will update once I hear back.

Wow, they want the whole gun. Ok, sending in to warranty. I will update asap.

3rd call with springfield armory, new lady this time. Not very understanding of the issue. Keep making excuses that they dont ship out non assemled guns. I asked how you do warranty work then? I only need to send the upper to you. Silence... ON hold now again...

Negative, the other, other valley. lol Las Vegas.

Will be calling to send to springfield today then. I am in absolute agreement with you. I have disassembled many, many guns. Have never run into this and giving SPA the benefit of the doubt. But at this point, sounds like something happend to my pdw in manufacturing that is not allowing the hate...

100%

What would anger me is the response from Springfield if that was the case. "If the gunsmith knows what they are doing then they will be able to remove the brake". I've been to two now and maybe even 3 tomorrow. I ask pretty politely, if any secrets or tricks to get the brake off, I even...

Maybe we have to PUSH and TURN? lol =D Ohh mann... =(

Good Idea. I will reach out to them next. Thank you!

Yup, oddly enough, 0 videos on this guy for maint or disassembly. Even the website page for the pdw shows the hate brake off and the hand guard.. cant believe it is this difficult..
