4) it is absolutely irrelevant if a suppressor is made, locally, overseas, or on mars. The seller has to confirm that the product they sell meets the quality, requirements and if they are unwilling to do that they should stop selling these products.
5) in this case it was not an out of spec thread but a completely wrong one which was not picked up.
6) personally, I deal with machined parts both locally produced as well as imported... the most grave mistakes always happen locally, and we are now only manufacturing domestically if the timing requires it. Reading a caliper or tape measure seems to be difficult for many NZers...
7) they fucked up, but atleast fixed their fuck up so at least that... it would be nice if they spent more time into overseeing their apprentices and teaching them how to do things properly... there is quite a bit of potential for improvement there.

Implying "said seller" makes more mistakes than other "sellers" is creative writing which suits your cause.
They may well make more mistakes than the average Gunshop. But I would suggests that their mistakes as a percentage of transactions is likely as low as other retailers.
I don't have stats to prove it, but yet to see stats which disprove it also.
All this "perfectionist" talk of threads has been a eye opener for me. I could have quite likely had the same result as the OP and the apprentice.
