New P365 Quality Control Issue?

It’s fine ..
Clean,lube and shoot
Have fun 😆

Mine shoots great, holes & all.

Most factories tend to overlube weapons to prevent rust during shipping and storage at the dealer. The amounts of swarf left by machining can vary, and getting it out of areas where parts are moving will definitely remove any scoring or damage.

Many makers used to dunk the parts in solvent during the manufacturing process to clean them as they moved down the line, however the volatile chemicals were a hazard for workers to use and even worse when disposed improperly, which increased costs significantly for their use. Locally we had a ball bearing plant where barrels of cleaner were simply dumped in the back lot and after it showed up in the water most wells had to be shut down and those homes put on bottled water until lines could be added to the streets. It took years. The cleaner showed up miles away as it drifted with the acquifer - which extends thru Missouri thru Oklahoma and further.

The owner cleaning it once at home is far less toxic and why we no longer get them as nice as we'd like straight out of the box. Its one of those "be careful what you ask for" things in factory production. Getting a "unclean" firearm means less impact to the environment, lower costs, and living outside the metro you can trust your well water a lot more. Nobody wants to discover you've been drinking cleaners for years and it's why all the older folks died off and the cancer rate skyrocketed.
