No.^ Nondisclosure agreement ?
Excellent news and thanks for the update(s)!Ruger made good on their promise to replace the firearm. It arrived yesterday. They also reimbursed me for the new transfer fee.
New gun looks fine. Stiff and lots of MIM parts.
That revolver did an admirable job in protecting you as it disintegrated in your hands. Kudos to the Ruger engineers as well as their customer service. I had no doubt they would step up regardless of their examination results. I doubt Ruger will provide any test or inspection results with the replacement revolver, but will include a standard attorney approved cover letter outlining that they do not warranty anything that they sell, but are sending a replacement revolver as a thank you for being a Ruger Customer.It was pretty scary.
I had to get bbq afterwards to settle me down.
I still don't get it..federal law allows exactly that. Different serial number, but same make/model, is fine as long as the manufacturer is returning 1 for 1 a gun you sent them.Transfer fee because it was a different serialized gun. If it was the same gun getting repaired they could send the same one back to me.
No theory. Just told me it was not repairable and said they were replacing it.
Federal is a Top Tier manufacturer.So, what's the general consensus here on Federal ammo ? Was this an aberation, or is their stuff kinda sketchy these days. I ask because i have a 'few' boxes, and recently Wal-mart has had their brass-cased 9mm on price-drop, for $12.77, and I grabbed a couple extra boxes, just cuz.
