HK warranty

[aakoksal]

Hi,

Asked this is general forum, thought do the same here as well if you don’t mind.

I was wondering what is the H&K warranty policy on a pistol damaged due to a squib load.? Replacement with no questions asked? A friend insists that is the case.

Thanks.

I don't have the answer, but why would a gun manufacturer warranty that?

Sounds like an ammo issue, try the manufacturer?

If a handload I doubt it.

Hand loading voids HK warranty.

Factory load squib, contact the ammo manufacturer, they’d be interested to know the lot number too.

No reason for a manufacturer to replace a pistol that’s been been damaged by faulty ammunition & why would anyone even believe that would be the case ?

If factory ammo contact the ammo manufacturers support line.

If it's you hand-loads, just buy replacement parts (or a new pistol) and call it a lesson learned.

Yea I doubt the gun manufacturer would cover that in any case. Especially H&K. Not their fault. :/

that's like you filling your BMW up with propane, had a thermal event and calling BMW to get you a replacement car.

When I first started to reload, I bought Norincos just for that exact same reason. If I blow up a 300$ 1911 or a 500$ m305, no biggies.

H&K USC squibs, not warrantied, user must pay for new barrel - https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/...llet-stacking/

Hand loading voids HK warranty.

Not according to my manual. Only ammunition that is warranty excluded is +p+.
