Taurus warranty

[rocky3]

I bought a supposedly New 609 at the gun show and found later that is was defective.
As you know most things bought at a gun show are "As Is", unless you buy from a dealer you trust or know.
In my case the "dealer" was from down south and he plainly lied.
I sent the gun back to Taurus and in one week the gun came back in brand new condition.
Sa and double action were fixed as well as the safety.
I had received a letter, the same day my gun came back, tell me it would be 4 weeks before the gun would be sent back to me...must have been a general form letter.
It's good to know a co. abides by their warranty.

Thanks for sharing the story. I own a model 66 and like to hear when a company backs up its products. That was a fast turn around time too.

Identical to my experience with Taurus. Service and turnaround time are excellent, A+ no questions asked repair department. I think my "We are starting repair" letter came almost a week after mine returned home!

i suspect they fix a lot of almost new in box revolvers at the taurus factory.

HA!

The problem is that I've needed the warranty on three of the four taurus revolvers I've owned. Yeah, they fixed them, but I want a product with a bullet-proof warranty I'll never need. Glad yours got fixed though.

Yep, Taurus is one of the few that has a lifetime warranty and covers all buyers, new or used too.

I've never needed it though.

i bought one taurus revolver new. it went back to the shop in less than one hundred rounds. it was an m44 airweight 44 magnum and i dont have it anymore.

if taurus didnt have a lifetime warranty no one would buy them.
