well bought gun brand new in last of week in april this year . great gun but but but after a month the blacking on action on l/h side about the size of your thumb went a gray colour .shot about 500 shells through it always but always cleaned gun after shooting it .so took it back to dealer (they were great )who said yes its a fault and sent it back to blaser . was very pleased that fault was getting sorted by blaser who agreed it was a fault . the problem is im still waiting for the gun to be sorted out . blaser are putting a new type of diamond blacking on gun and its not quite ready to use on production line as yet .so blaser have had my gun over five months and im still waiting !!!!!!!!!.dealer offered a loan gun but i have other shotguns in the gun safe i can use .just my luck me thinks i out to have bought a second hand dt11
