I'm real glad to hear that Tradition's Firearms Company takes care of its customers with excellent support!! I am not really surprised as I too own three (last time I looked close) Tradition rifles and have used their customer support once on a rifle that refused to fire a #11 caps. Their customer service departmentcleared that problem upby having me send the rifle in, their head gunsmith did a excellent job fixing the rifle, and then sent it back to me no charge...That was my Tradition's Hawkins Woodsman .50 caliber. A real sweetheart of a rifle to shoot.

I looked at a Pursuit LT today when I was at Wal Mart buying more muzzleloadingshooting supplies. I shot a Pursuit Pro a few weeks back, which I think has a longer barrel.I was going to ask them to remove the trigger lock so I could test the trigger butdecided against it. They were selling for $232.00 I think it was. That little rifle pulled real nice to the shoulder and I really liked the fiber optic sights on it (my friend had removed his when he installed a scope). The dots were nice and small and they lined up nice when I pulled the rifle up. I also looked at the ramrod on the rifle to get an idea what happened to yours.. Overall an impressive light weight rifle.
