Default RE: the TRUTH about TC's warranty! MUST READ

Pay no mind to Mr. Gander liquidorange! Until he actually deals with T/C Inc repeatedly, he hasn't a clue.


If i were to buy a TC... are you saying i would have to deal with TC repeatedly for repairs? And yes to the other guy, That kentucky out shoots that renegade i had. The guy that bought the renegade, loves it. I just wanted a flintlock. As for sight quailty, How picky can you get with a steel sight and a brass front blade? Ive actually come to prefer the old style sights. But yes, the kentucky has truely been enjoyable since the first day i bought it. I will admit that i had traditions send me a new Frizzen, but after reading that leather can cause the flint to skip and bounce and break the flint, i hammered down a round ball and wrapped the flint in lead and had zero problems lol. Atleast i got a spare frizzen for later down the road. Traditions also sent me a new ramrod free after i accidently broke mine while trying to load a home made ball. Broke that one to [:@].. After that i've learned my lesson and will only buy speer or hornady balls from the store lol. Home made are fine for shooting as long as you have a non breakable ramrod, but i'll spend the $9.99 on store bought when hunting season comes around the corner. And a greenhorn? ive been muzzleloading for 7 years now, How many more years untill i become a pro like you triple? Now triple, I wouldnt exactly call myself a green horn, I mean an inline muzzleloader does take a genius to figure out how it works. Ive taught myself since i bought my first muzzleloader when i was 14. That was WAYYYYY b4 i had the internet and could look this stuff up. And as for warrantys, i'll agree with a poster that said the best warranty is the one you never have to use. Difference in stocks... we'll you got me there, That renegade originally had a really dull almost fake wood looking red stock finish. Ugliest finish ive ever seen besides on cva's older rifles that were done in an almost orange fashion. Now my kentucky had a really nice finish untill i got done after this seasons hunt .. Ah well, i got it stripped and im redoing the stock in a dark chocolate color and finished with boiled linseed oil and bees wax. Also wanting to "grey" the barrel but cant find any info on how to do it. Someone said bleach but im looking into that b4 i even think of using it lol. Now if you wanna talk real toys, my toys are under the hoods of my cars. Muzzleloading is just my favorite type of hunting weapon. Motors are my passion. Ever feel the torque of a 1970 buick GS 455 stage 1? oooooh baby1 nothing like 510ft lbs torque at a meer 2800rpm! Ah well, a 455 will have to wait untill i can afford a nicely built one. I'll stick with my 350 buick i started on a couple weeks ago.
