T/C has a "full" lifetime warranty. Twenty years from now, should you be the hypothetical 3rd owner with no store receipt, you can still get your parts replaced free. With T/C, you are allowed to wear-out the entire barrel & they will replace it free.

I am going thru this right now with a Renegade stock assembly. All of a sudden, the single trigger & lock assembly froze-up. Nothing will move -- neither the lock or the trigger. I am packing the stock assembly into a shipping boxas I type this. I boughtit a few months ago ata gun auction. It periodically would not fire a cap & the trigger has alot of slop in it.The stock assemblymust be at least 25 years old.It would not surprise me to get it back from T/C in about three weeks with a new lock & trigger -- free of charge.

CVA/Winchester/BPI... even Traditions - would never do that.
