So if you buy a tc, dont take it out in the rain or snow because it will "freeze" up and break? Sounds like real quality there!

I borrowed this off another forum:

"T/C repair/tech services is "absolutely" swamped. T/C has removed the desk phones from the "techs" desks so they can focus
on repairing rifles and less time talking to the customer."

I dont know about you guys, but ive been shooting a winchester x-150 for close to 5 years and its never had any warranty service or any kind of break down. TC seems pretty famous for breaking down. And im getting darn close to 2000 shots through it on the original breech plug.
Maybe if they'd improved the parts that they know are prone to problems, they wouldnt be swamped with repair work.
