I bought a brand new Comanchero 1873 in 45 Colt 4 years ago from Taylor’s and bought a used Codymatic 1873 in 45 Colt 2 years ago for backup. The second one is over 5 years old. A spring broke on the used one right after I bought it and I happened to be shooting with Cody in a two day match the next week. He took it home with him after the first day of the match fixed it and give it back to me the next morning. I have been shooting both rifles randomly since with no problems.He is a good guy, stands behind his work and even though it was used refused to let me pay him for fixing it.
