No matter where any of the majors are held, it will always be a bit of a trek for someone. At least it is only 5 minutes off the M4. Not as bad as sticking stuff right out on the east coast though. 🙂
Makes sure you get/order the right one. The MX 2000 has a drop out trigger group, the MX 2000s has the fixed trigger group. Same goes for the MX8 and MX12 respectively.
In that case then, I would be buying another miroku with 32" barrels and just swap the wood over. Simple enough job. Then move the other gun on with the shortened barrels either to a dealer or through auction. That to me would be the easiest and quickest way out of a bad situation.
You done a video showing how clean the chokes are kept, and how clean everything was before they went back to Teague. Except the choke in the top barrel so we don't know really how clean the chokes were in the gun.
The very first picture of the chokes in the opening gambit. If you click on the...
The only choke in that video not shown nice and shiny clean was the one in the top barrel, that was shown to be dirty in the report, when removed ??
From the very start and even first pictures things don't seem to ring true to me.
That would have been my first course of action, insurance. See what they had to say. Might just have been able to save all this grief. But as Robden says was this gun insured as unmodified?
I would imagine that the barrels with the chokes up to 1/2 are tested for steel, and marked up accordingly. Most of the advice for steel is no more than 1/2 choke. Steel proofing is done at a much higher pressure than just for lead. You have to request the proofing for steel or it will only be...
Far to many unanswered questions for me here.
1. What is the warranty/guarantee from Teague for the work?
2. Proof testing certificate. A friend of mine has just had his P gun Teagued and has a proofing cert and the barrels stamped for steel shot.
3. Who wrote the report?
Questions that have...
What are we looking at here? Those threads appear to me to be cover in rust residue, was this before it was shipped? I take it you were shooting full and full.
People now only going to use manufactures chokes, after using Teagues with no issues. What's in their thinking? Manufacturer chokes do blow as well. And 99.9% of the time I bet it is operator error. :frantics:
I really think people need to get this into perspective here. It's not the first time, and won't be the last time a choke has blown. Whether it be a Teague choke or a manufacturers choke. Some of the comments on here, some people need to get a grip.
They are stainless steal, the only gun I have...
Pretty much an as expected out come really. Teague will not admit liability, and you say there was no damage and the choke was seated correctly.
The thing is now you are looking to go down the insurance route. If the gun was/is insured why not go down that route from the start?
Probably because it contains information and results from the independent inspection, which is easier to explain in writing. Why try to explain the reasons over the phone.
