hangunnr Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 Spent a lot of time and components fine tuning my S&W Performance Center 460. Got her shooting some fine groups with consistancy. Had plans to smoke some venison this fall...... Found out today that Smith is recalling the Performance Center 460's. I guess there has been some issue with the barrels. They do say the recall dosen't cover the standard 460XVR guns, just the sleeved barrel PC guns.

Guest Xen Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 Re: It figures..... sorry to hear that hope their turn-around time isn't too long, maybe you'll get it back fast or your barrel will test to be ok - think positive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hangunnr Posted September 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 Re: It figures..... They updated the webpage with the info about returning the guns. They state the repairs will be free of charge. I wonder (not really) if they'll reimburse the shipping costs? hangunnr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJL Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 Re: It figures..... They know I have one of the guns in question. How long will it take a company with their reputation to contact me? Let's just see.................. Or I could call them and make sure that they can get it back to me by the first of Nov. So that I can be ready for deer season.................Or I could just keep shooting it, my wife would enjoy the insurance money, not to mention the money from the lawsuit she files against S&W....................... This could get real interesting before its all over. Lets find out JJL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strut10 Posted September 24, 2006 Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 Re: It figures..... 'Gunnr............ Dave sez hurry up & get fixed & get to PA. He's anxious shoot this one, too. Maybe it'll be back by pre-rut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hangunnr Posted September 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 Re: It figures..... Don, If I could make it out there for the pre-rut you know I would. I just don't see it happening this year. You need to concentrate on getting Mrs. Strut a good buck. I don't know if and when I'll send my Smith off. I may hold back a little to see what actually happens when guns start getting returned. I think I'll let others be the guinea pigs. God only knows if Smith will get it right the second time around. I've already had thoughts of having them install a standard contour barrel on the PC frame then getting the whole gun redone in the black finish. hangunnr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJL Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 Re: It figures..... Mine isn't going back untill after gun season. Unless they contact me and offer up a replacement to use while they check mine out. They know I have one..............let's see what they do.
