Possum Skinner, SASS#60697 Posted May 4 Posted May 4 Since when has Uberti been putting Lock-tite on side plate screws? Ugh! Red no less. Had to use impact to break it loose. 3 1 Quote

Eyesa Horg Posted May 4 Posted May 4 (edited) It's a warranty thing! If you send it back and they can remove the screws, your warranty is void. Kinda like " if this label is torn" Edited May 4 by Eyesa Horg Missing word! 1 2 Quote

Johnny Meadows,SASS#28485L Posted May 5 Posted May 5 I had to take a heat gun and impact driver to take apart a new Uberti Trapper in the last few days. I've been doing these guns for well over 20 years and have never had one the likes of this gun. Johnny Meadows Quote
