quality in question????????

[robert ehrenfried]

I've been trying unsuccessfully for days to contact Uberti in regard to an 1858 Remington millenium revolver cylinder alignment problem. seems the cylinder is off by three thousandths or so at the breech when fully cocked on all six chambers. When trying to notify the company I have received the royal runaround. I can't believe it's so hard to just get the problem rectified by a company that until now has been outstanding so far as I am concerned. Oh, and also, I bought the gun new; it has never been fired, this is indeed a problem. I am going to continue to get satisfaction from the company and get the thing fixed as it is worthless for now. thanks for listening!!!!!!! :mad:

You need to contact the customer service department of the company that imported your firearm? Check the barrel for the company name.

I just had the stock crack and pieces of stock come off a 2 month old Stoeger Silverado Coach gun. After checking the SASS wire I found this to be a very common problem with the Stoeger Coach guns. A number of CAS shooters have had similiar problems. Possible causes listed are stock bolt loosening up, improper fitting of stock to reveiver, inferior wood and poor design of the top of the receiver by the release lever. I am not interested in sending the gun out and tying it up for months. Stoeger told me that I would have to send the gun to Benelli and/or order a new stock from a dealer. I feel that a new replacement should be sent to me from the factory.
I also feel that Stoeger/Benelli should correct this problem with minimum impact on the shooters. Some CAS shooters have had stocks repaired because they were not willing to tie the gun up for months. Stoeger coach guns are very common CAS guns, but more than a few are not happy with the problems and mentioned that they would not buy another Stoeger gun. I recommend you check the SASS wire for documented problems with these guns and take the necessary corrective action.
I was planning on buying an Uplander for field work and as a backup for CAS. I am going to hold off on that until I see what it takes for me to get this stock problem corrected.
