Trying to help my buddy out.
Last week his locking block broke and it only costs $23 to replace it, but he's wondering if he needs to be concerned and send the whole gun back to Beretta. My thoughts were just replace the block and keep shooting, but I don't know jack.
Here are my questions:
1. Should he just replace and move on?
2. Should he send it in anyway b/c I believe he's had the gun since 93, but just recently started putting serious rounds down range with me? Maybe 12k rounds fired during the lifetime of the gun.
3. What is Beretta's warranty as far as covering such a thing and is this a normal wear/tear item that you'd expect to just drop a new one in at some point?
4. What cost might it be to send it in if any?
5. Would a new locking block need to be 'tweaked' or is this a standard fit w/ no issues?
Thanks for any help in advance!
