Harnser Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 If the gun is under warrenty insist that it is exchanged ,sounds as if gas is getting behind the choke to cause the damage ,because of badly threaded choke or barrel . The gun is unsafe and out of proof and is unfit for what it is designed for . Contact trading standards for advice . Harnser . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Dog Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 As said above, contact Trading Standards. Dont use the gun on the grounds of health and safety. Why should you have the gun modified to a shorter length due its short commings ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jinxy72 Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 has it damaged the barrels or is it just the choke which has been damaged ? if its the choke that is damaged then get some better quality chokes for it .. ie teague could just be poor metal that the chokes are made of.

mr salt Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 You do legally have rights , for anything up to six years,if you have not abused it. sounds odd but it was on tv a few weeks ago. Check with trading standards. When the gun was sold to you :it had to be fit for the purpose it was sold for. scott mr salt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
