Howdy all,
Within the past 2 years I bought 2 1911's from a large known online retailer who mails to a FFL of your choice. Both of these 1911's of different brands are having problems and will need either the warranty to be used or worked on by a gunsmith.
I read in a post somewhere a fellow who bought a faulty rifle from this same retailer thought maybe this retailer gets the bulk of problem guns from manufacturers because the customers can't send it back to them unless you refuse to accept it from the FFL.
Is the above possible? I ask because I wish to purchase a new firearm but I'm concerned it is more likely I get a problem gun from this retailer than a different retailer.
If anyone knows of an online retailer who is unlikely to buy (from the manufacturer) and sell a bad gun, I'd certainly appreciate the referral.
If the model I'm considering is purchased from a LGS, will the LGS send it back on their dime if need be? This particular manufacturer requires the customer to ship it back on their dime. Thanks.
Happy Shooting!
