Hi Guys
A friend of mine has one. He had to return it under warranty for a firing pin issue. I cannot remember whether it was top or bottom barrel. I believe that the issue was corrected quickly once returned to NIOA.
Cheers

I have one and have put ove 1000 rounds through it for clays and bunnies and never had a single problem with it so far!!!
Hope this helps!!!

Bummer for your friend.

Nothing's perfect though, one had to have a failure sooner or later.
