A few years ago I had extractor problems on a 25 06 barrel, I think this was just after Smith and Wesson bought them out, I needed an extractor and it was an almost new barrel and there were none available in Canada. I think a gunsmith in Victoria was the contact for parts and repairs, and He said parts were a year or two away. I had owned a few barrels and a couple of stocks. I spoke to someone at TC in the states and they were less than interested in helping a Canadian customer. So I sold all the TC items I had at a loss. When I want a single shot I will buy a CVA or maybe an old NEF/H&R. Since then I will not own anything that is Smith and Wesson. I have heard the original owner repurchased the company back from Smith and Wesson so maybe they will fix their problems.
