F&D DEFENSE also reserves the right to cancel orders (partially or entirely) at any time without prior notice if conditions require, and in accordance with the below procedures regarding refund of any deposits or partial and full payments.

Warranty:

Limited

F&D DEFENSE guarantees and warrants that the enclosed firearm was manufactured free of defects in material, workmanship and mechanical function. This warranty agreement confers the right to have the subject firearm or its parts repaired, adjusted or replaced as F&D DEFENSE determines is necessary and to pay transportation and insurance charges for return of the subject firearm to owner. Defects in material and workmanship claims apply only to factory built products; third party products are subject to that manufacturer’s warranty and must be claimed through that company.

Transferable

This warranty standard constitutes the exclusive remedies of any authorized customer, as well as its successors.

Lifetime Term

This warranty standard relating to the above described warranty applies for the lifetime of the product.

Exclusions

Except as otherwise provided, the buyer agrees that this warranty is voided and F&D DEFENSE is not liable if the product has been damaged by: accident or neglect, careless handling, abuse or misuse, firing with an obstruction in the barrel, damage through failure to provide reasonable or necessary maintenance, or any use that may be determined as unreasonable by F&D DEFENSE. Unauthorized repair, adjustment, alteration or modification; defective, low quality, hand-loaded, or otherwise improper use of non-standard ammunition permanently voids this warranty. The limited warranty does not apply to normal wear and tear of parts listed as such on the illustrated parts breakdown shown within this user manual.

Accuracy depends on various factors such as bullet weight, type, quality, powder load and type, operator technique, proper maintenance of action components and sights/scopes, environmental conditions and ammunition, among several other variables; therefore, F&D DEFENSE does not guarantee or warrant a specific group size or “MOA” to the customer as an operator; but rather through a standardized setup and procedure system operated and regulated by F&D DEFENSE. All F&D DEFENSE rifles are guaranteed capable of 1.0 MOA accuracy or better upon initial delivery from the factory.

F&D DEFENSE firearms are manufactured to perform properly with the original parts as designed. Your rifle is a complex, dynamic assembly with parts that must relate correctly to each other for proper and safe operation. Assembling a rifle incorrectly or with improper, modified or other manufacturers’ parts can result in damaged, personal injury or death from the firearm’s malfunction. A qualified gunsmith should work on your rifle or at least check any work not performed by a gunsmith prior to use. Failure to properly follow the user manual for maintenance and operation of your F&D DEFENSE firearm could void the warranty partially or entirely. It’s the customer’s responsibility to acquire the latest version user manuals from F&D DEFENSE and apply the manuals’ instructions accordingly.

Components

See the illustrated parts breakdown of the user manual supplied with your rifle. Items listed as “consumable” are not warranted from damage or inoperability due to normal use and wear, but can be purchased as replacement or backup items from F&D DEFENSE. Components listed as “manufactured” or “modified” by F&D DEFENSE are warranted free from defect for the lifetime of the rifle through F&D DEFENSE, and replacement parts may be purchased directly from F&D DEFENSE.
