1 of 30, I have had this for 6 or 7 months now and have just found some time to check it out. I did initially shoot it a little because that is all the time I had. It came with a detailed instructions  for shooting it in. So my concerns as of late are it seems like something ain't right. I don't want to shoot it anymore until it is checked out. What do I do next? I hope Hector  sees this.

@doug_wall  don't feel right on the cocking stroke, like a galling inside. I did take action out of stock to see if it was the cocking arm and comp tube slot. Nothing abnormal there. Hesitant to try cocking anymore. I paid a lot of money for this and really like it a lot. Looking for recommendations .

@bf1956 Sounds like a broken spring to me. Replacement is not too difficult, but you'll need a spring compressor. Easy enough to make yourself. There are videos on line that cover the process, and replacement springs are available through places like Vortek.

Let us know how you make out with this.

Send Hector an email, explain things and see what he says. Dealt with him myself since I happen to own #15 of the 30 made and he'll make things right for you.

My own D34K Premium .20 caliber:

D34 20cal 1
D34 20cal 4

@bf1956 

Send it back and let me look into it.

Do send it fully insured, send me the tracking number, and ensure that it is VERY well packed.
Transit of long parcels in Holidays Season is always a bit tricky.

We'll figure out what is the best course of action.

@hector_j_medina_g  How about we wait, like mid 1/26? Shipping is really messed up right now. What's best for a courier? Thanks Hector I sincerely appreciate your response.

I was surprised at how economical it is to use Ground Transportation for long guns through the USPS

IF you can pack it real well in a hard case and that (tight fitting) hard case in a tight fitting box.

Then take it to the USPS and ship it "Ground Advantage" fully insured (about $600), it should come to about $45-$60

UPS will charge you more.

Either way, let me know the tracking number when you decide to ship it.

I am sorry this is happening, hopefully, it will be some simple thing.

AND, BTW, ALMOST all the 34k's have been sold.

The only remaining one is part of a Matched Pair 34/54 with the same series numbers.

So, let's try to take good care of the beastie.

Whenever you are ready, there is no expiration date on that warranty, just let me know the waybill/tracking #.

Thanks, keep well and shoot straight!
