Actually some of the recalled barrels had to have a thing installed in the nipple thread area that put a tighter grip on the installed nipple. I had two of the barrels that needed it. I sent them in and they took care of the problem. But you are right.. this is a very old warning that came out. But you never know.. someone might have one of these barrels sitting around in a box somewhere they never shot. Better safe then sorry. Thanks.
