The gun writer Mike Venturino (spelling?) has written that one of the companies that import Italian replicas of the Colt single action sent him one to test, with no rifling in the barrel, Said he had to send it back for another one. (He didn't hame the company.)
He was making a comment about how people who write for the gun rags don't necessarily get special, hand selected samples to test like you might think.

I have changed a couple barrels for people.
One better brand, I don't recall which, had a literally hand tight barrel nut.
Another, I nearly ripped the vice off the bench. Threads had no sign of loc-tite or such. Even with reaction-rod and reciever support I can't believe there was no damage.
I build all my own uppers.
