I got a chance to put the veritas together today and first thing I found was the ferrules are rather tight to put together and have to wrestle with it to pull it apart. also when putting it together the female end of the join does not go right up to the binding at the top of the male end of the joiners, is this normal or does it need to go back to the shop to get it sorted out before I use it as I have never experienced this before with rods I have owned in the past..
