There is enough wrong to go around on this whole fiasco. I would bet there will be a better effort to provide a much improved warranty informational in the future. I do know your rifle will be in top working order when you get it back. It would be a shame to not keep shooting it since it shoots so well. What were the loads you fired in the 200 yard group? BTW cool paint job.

Never said you did anything wrong per say. I was just amazed at how quickly you went into being so angry and posting some erroneous info regarding the fees and having to go through another background check, etc. Sure it would have helped if a warranty card or other info was in the box or owners manual. I just have trouble understanding how it can make you completely regret buying a good rifle that is a great shooter. I get it that it is somewhat irritating and frustrating, btdt. I just wouldn't let it ruin my having some fun with the rifle in the future. If you get it back and still don't want it, let me know, I would be interested in it.

It is easy for me to to understand the disappointment here. Gosh can't the maker take a few minutes out of their day to see if what they made really works ? That is why we buy a rifle .As for the reps here in the USA they should be yanking on somebodies chain at Sauer.

I can send this rifle straight to repairman's FFL since he's so confident in Sauer. Make you a hell of a deal.

Fireball2, If the rifle was functioning correctly would you want to keep it? I was at Blaser today and will get in touch with their gunsmith Monday, if it would help.

I'm waiting for FFL information from Blaser or it would have been gone already. Be glad to send it to repairman. Or anyone else for that matter.

$450 and I'll send it in for you, it's all double boxed and ready to go. You pay to ship it to your FFL when it's repaired, either from here or if they'll do it, directly from Blaser USA.
There you go repairman, chance of a lifetime.

That should quiet the chatter. 2+ full pages of posts. You have 28 of them.

I'll take it. Tell me where to send the 450. Thanks! BTW you don't need their FFL to send it in for repair. Did they send you the address and shipping label?

Blaser USA said the rifle had a magazine issue (yeah, no [bleep]) and now "it feeds as well as it was designed to", whatever that is. I did sell it to repairman and replaced it with an Anschutz 153 and a Remington 660. 50 years ago they actually designed actions around cartridges. What a concept.

Looking forward to hear if they fixed it. Hopefully Repairman will post his findings. I was all ready to order one of these before things went sideways.

My guess is that repairman works for Blaser as he lives nearby.
