Cosd Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 If one was to use an aftermarket choke, say Teague/Muller etc, and lets just say your barrels blew. Would the fact that you're using non genuine chokes void any warranty? It hasn't happened, just wondering..... Cos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougall Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 I think would depend where barrel blew.....but I cannot see how fitting either would increase the chance of such an event ever happening...barrels letting go on is invariably a blockage or a home load error.........and I would doubt a warranty could be expected to cover such user error?..

timps Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 It would give them a get out clause, I have seen a few aftermarket chokes fail in recent times. Obliviously if a choke cracks or a lip appears then shot and hot gasses can get behind it or the crack itself causes an obstruction, this could and has caused failures of the barrel. So any gun maker is going to point blame away from themselves if an aftermarket choke has been used and there is an end of barrel failure. However even using standard chokes they still might argue that you didn’t tighten or check the choke so user error is to blame and with a properly tightened choke the failure would not have occurred.

Gordon R Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 Sadly, I believe Timps and BlaserF3 are correct - and not for the first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
