I don't care how their (TC)warranty reads, you don't have to fill out a registration card, they don't care if you bought it new, you just have to pick up the phone and call them. One time they Fed-X'd(at their cost)the gun back to me so I would not miss out hunting-(cracked stock on a sidelock) The other time I readily admitted to breaking a ferral screw off my self while trying to modify the ferral-(I moved the sling mount from the stock to the ferral)-they sent me a new ferral and a bag of screws and even offered to get the broken screw out of the bbl. if I felt like sending it back. This was on a Firehawk inline and while we were talking I mentioned getting alot of blowback after I installed one of their musket cap nipples, along with the screws and ferral, they also sent me all the parts in the action and more nippleswith a note saying some of then were changed from when my gun was made and to give them a try.

I don't think warranties get any better than that...
