First off, I agree with you and they need to remedy this fault in their build process.
But, let me ask you this. I’m not familiar with Fusion 1911s. Is this a hand fit (semi-custom) pistol like the Dan Wesson’s? Also, did I read correctly that you paid under $800 for this CCO? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No and yes. Fusion does make hand fit semi-customs that are reported to be high quality, but this is not one of them. And price does not should not dictate finish. Think Glock.

Under the slide lock, along the rails (typical), inside the frame just forward of the mag well, and a few other places. There are some pic's in my gun porn thread.

the rails and inside the frame wouldn't bother me but under the slide stop would.

Take a closer look at the first picture, those white spots are wear marks-- down to the metal. Then take a closer look at pic 4 on the ass end above the rails.. Remember this is a new gun with less than 100 rounds thru it. If I'm wrong somebody please convince me, but none of my pistols have worn like this.

I agree. while I anticipate some wear it should not be down to bare metal and definitely not practically right out of the box.
I have a series 70 Colt that I brought 30 years ago that doesn't have nowhere near that amount of wear on it.

Too bad really. I've always hoped that eventually something good would become of Fusion. If it wasn't for Bob Serva it's likely COTEP wouldn't even exist. I dare say it was the outstanding quality and reasonable price point of the Bob Serva Era Dan Wesson that really started the hype and attraction to DW. Not to mention his willingness to do what no other gun company would. He brought back the 10mm in style with the limited edition RZ. He participated and allowed people to basically spec exactly what they wanted in a public gun forum. He started putting custom parts on production guns, knocking it out of the park with the CBOB. Bob Serva was just the real deal boss for a while. He's responsible for a lot of good memories.
