I called cz today...they said send it to them...they'll fix it for free...kind of a pia but good to know they'll stand behind it...said it would take 6 weeks tho...will see what happens 

         Kendall,

  Can you do the shipping yourself or do you have to go through a gun dealer? PIA all the way around. Hope that it gets fixed.

I hear ya....i've got a 870 magnum I use for turkeys.  He has an old wingmaster  quail gun...with improved cylinder...so he was wanting something specifically for turkeys.

He doesn't like duck hunting because he says too cold...but went with us this morning...it was pretty nice out...I took my coat off in ground blind...and actually fell asleep at one point.  He finally goes and the dang gun didn't work right...bad luck

Maybe it will be an easy fix...I thought this gun would basically be like my 870 magnum

Maybe get a new barrel for the wingmaster?  I have one too, 26" IC and 28" modified, from back in the day..  Today I would just buy a barrel with Remchokes.  I wound up inheriting an 870 Express Magnum with Remchokes, so I'm pretty well set when it comes to 870.  They are impossible to beat when it comes to pump shotguns.

Good luck I hope they get it taken care of for you.

Ya...suprised me but they said I could just FedEx it directly to them.

I've looked at a different barrell for a remington 1100...and I just hate to pay new prices for them...most are over 200 bucks.  I've got 1100 in 410, 20, and 12...but the 20 was used as skeet and trap gun...so it has skeet barrell and full choke.  I'd rather have a modified

Uncle goes to gun shows sometimes...he says you can pickup a remington barrell cheaper at the shows...but I haven't ever tried it.

I had to return an early 10-22 in .22WMR to Ruger.  Regular shipping since it's not a buy/sell thing.  They couldn't solve the problem, took 10-22 .22WMR off the market and let me have my pick of any rimfire they had.  Took a 77-22 stainless with the boat paddle stock in .22WMR.  Still one of my favorite rifles and for sure my favorite rimfire.  You might get something similar from CZ.

Thats a shame.  Those Ruger 10-22s in 22 WMR are rare beasts.

The 44 Mags and Lever Actions are bringing some high dollars at the gunshows.

Just as a closure...I got the gun back today.

cz customer service was great...according to the notes...they replaced the action bar...extended the firing pin.  Got new barrel due to seized choke...included new extra full choke in box.  They didn’t charge anything for repairs or shipping either way.

Everything seems brand new...not sure how well it will work but I’d say they stood behind it.  Hopefully it will work the few times he tries to shoot a turkey.  I doubt I will take it...I’m not sure I trust it
