I ordered an NFC 725-1 X-ray c602 last August. Was notified it would be delivered today 01/17. I arrived home from work after a long day in court looking forward to playing with a blank I wait so long for. I pulled into the driveway and found a rod tube leaned up on my trash can. Never had anything left there before and my heart dropped as there was about a 60 degree bend in the tube . Packing tape wrapped around the break in the tube. I gathered up the tube and my dinner. No rattles heard so there was hope. I ate dinner and could not take the top off to pull the blank out because the break was to weak. Opened in the middle with a hunting knife. To my amazement the blank was solid! Thanks NFC for taking care to package for worst case scenario! Now waiting for the blank wants to be.
