I think after reading many of your posts I have to wonder about you and if you. That you think it is BS for Smith & Wesson to charge you for something you admit "YOU" screwed up. Many have praised S&W for going above and beyond the call of duty in honoring warrenty claims and trying to make things right when there is even a hint of a possibility they were at fault. For you to whine when you goofed is wrong and bad form.
