Having issues with a new 597:
http://thefiringline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=484086
Post repair, I'm continuing to have problems with failure to fire (not as frequent). During cleaning, the hold open pin popped off and flew across the room, little hard to find.
I know, buyer beware, why didn't you get a 10/22 or Marlin, etc. I don't want to invest any more in the 597 like a new hammer or ejector to find there's more problems. It's just basically not fun anymore.
So, I want to basically write Remington and ask if they'll take back, exchange, or swap the firearm based on my problems.
Is that anywhere in the realm of possibilities? Anyone ever do this before with any success? Any tips?
