Kudo's to the customer service at Taurus

[ngrubb]

Recently
I purchased a new PT 1911B at a local gun store. I loved the 1911 that I had
when I first came into the military and have always wanted one since. After
buying some ammo I went to the range at Fort Sill and commenced to breaking it
in. 600 rounds later the weapon wouldn’t eject or extract rounds. I took the
weapon apart and sure enough the extractor was broke. I read on the web site
here many similar stories. Best of all I found the comments here very helpful
especially the ones telling people to call customer support and get a
replacement. I also took the suggestion to buy a few more while talking with
customer service so I would have some backups. The customer service rep was
very helpful. I stated that I had the pistol for about 2 months and the extractor
had broken and I needed to get a replacement and I also wanted to order two
more as a backup. The rep stated that since the pistol was so new he would
cover the extractor under warranty and throw the other two extractors In as well
for free. I was a little taken back but very appreciative. Love my PT 1911 and
extractors do break and no I didn’t chamber a round directly into the barrel
and then close the slide. Kudo's to the customer service at Taurus. Only
complaint was the amount of time it took to actually talk to a customer service
rep

Ah...I see now why I haven't received my new extractor from Taurus yet (been two weeks and were on backorder when I called). They sent them all to you.
