Oh my.
With a brand new firearm, I'm certain he:
1. read the manual.
2. broke down the weapon following the instructions in the manual.
3. inspected the weapon.
4. cleaned the weapon.
5. lubricated the weapon with the supplied or recommended lubricant as directed in the manual.
6. he obviously followed the reassembly instructions in the manual.
7. follow the break in procedures in the manual.
Yep must be defective. Send it back to the factory you dufus!

Obviously they didn't included the bottle of oil with the gun. And the instructions to keep it wet. Quite the narcissistic fellow. Who wants to watch a video by an incompetent ignoramus? I knew he was in trouble when he was talking about the bear cub ALL BY ITSELF climbing his fence.

Don't worry, Darwin's theory will take care of that bloodline eventually ... the pistol obviously came from the factory with too much grease and oil on it, so the only obvious solution was to break it down and wipe all the lubrication off, then run it dry, in order to "work those burrs out".
Personally, I'd liked to have watched him bash the slide back-and-forth on the frame about 40 or 50 more times.

I went through my entire gun room and gunsmiths tools... Nowhere do I have a giant rubber mallet 🙂Maybe I'm not gunsmithing right... All I have is a tiny little brass hammer and a tiny soft face mallet...

Personally, my guess is that you pretty much suck at gunsmithing if you don't have the right tools
I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

You must not own a MKIII Ruger .22 then. Wait till you need to separate the frame and barrel on one of those for the first time. 😉

I have to admit to using a rubber mallet on a 744 once. Action was locked up tight on a new to me gun when I got it out of the box. Just felt like something was jammed so I took off the grip, held it by the barrel and gave it a sharp rap with the mallet on the flat above the grip tang and.... IT WORKED! Action has been fine ever since. I don't recommend it but it worked. Never used one on a 1911 though.
Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

Please share the secret/technique - I still need to rubber mallet my barrel off my Hunter, even after a little polishing and using Anti Seize.
I'm pretty sure he sacrifices a goat and a chicken first.........

First of all, unless you are in the woods all the time for an extended time (like me) having a tight Ruger is a good thing. I smooth mine out so I can take them apart in the field if need be. My guns have a hard life--I have a MKII target that has zero bluing left on it (I'll fix that this winter). And as anybody knows, you have to hold your head just right with your tongue out under a full moon to get them apart first try 🙂
I did have an original Ruger Standard a long time ago that needed a smack to separate the barrel/frame. It was stupid tight.

And getting that MF'er back together again requires about four hands.
