Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Barrett Fieldcraft LW rifle?

The issue was with the cocking handle on the bolt and it only applies to a very small serial number range.

I'll say this in defense of Barrett -- they're doing business the way it should be done. You think another certain manufacturer of lightweight rifles would have gone to these measures if they found something out of QC spec? I already know the answer, as do most of you on here. Barrett could have turned a blind eye like many of their competitors have done in the past, but they made a stand up decision.

Barrett holds their product to higher quality standards than most of their competitors as well. This "recall" is a sample of those standards. That alone is what will keep their rifles in hands of customers for years to come.

It's an inconvenience (and I don't like being put out either), but rest assured they'll take care of you.
