Default Weatherby Customer Service

Dealt with them last nite on a very minor issue and can say that they are still the industry standard in my eyes at least with Firearms. I should add that Ruger is very close as well and has provided excellent service as well. I never had a defective rifle replaced by them like I did WEatherby though not that any of them needed to be replaced.

Now you see why I don't think Weatherbys are overpriced. If we could get the same customer service with other rifle companies I bet there will be less frustrated hunters out there.

I had a minor stock issue with Weatherby a few years ago (a small bubble hole in a synthetic stock) and they solved it in a snap by replacing the whole stock.

Im very pleased with the Weatherby's I own and think that a semi custom rifle like the Mrk V is worth the price.

Besides, I think no other riflemaker (at least in the US) makes a more beautiful wood stock than that in the Weatherby Mrk V deluxe.

Just my opinion......

If we all liked the same things it would be a pretty boring world wouldn't it?

Yup! some people like to drive Fix Or Rapair Daily and some like
to drive Escalades.

Oldelk, don't go running out and sell your Weatherby!

You still paid way too much for it if you paid over 700 dollars.

I paid 15 dollars short of 1/2 that amount...without a doubt the best 365 dollars of any type I have ever spent on anything ever whether hunting related or not.

When a company makes a good gun you don't need their customer service department.
