I did'nt see any years on the statement that he made,and any brand gun if it had any issues I would sure hope that it never left the facility where it was made,whether it was a cva,tc,night or any brand gun,and like I said before I had 2 cva's myself and I never had any issues with them,but I geuss a gun is know different than a car or a boat motor,it never hurts to do research before buying a product........Ted
