11. Care and
Maintenance
Only use products for the care of your rifle,
which are destined for this purpose.
Barrel: Polish exterior and interior of chamber
and barrel with a suitable gun oil after shoo-
ting, before storing the rifle for prolonged
periods of time, and after carrying the rifle,
especially in humid or wet conditions. Prior
to shooting, barrel and chamber have to be
thoroughly de-oiled again. In case of thick
deposits of bullet residues, we recommend
to use chemical barrel cleaners.
CAUTION:
Under all circumstances, oberserve
instructions and warnings given by the
product manufacturer for use of product.
Metal parts: Keep all metal parts of the
rifle clean and slightly oiled at all times.
Stock preservative is not suitable
for polishing metal parts!
Stocks: All wooden stocks of Blaser hunting
rifles are oil-rubbed. We recommend to
polish them regularly with standard stock
care products.
Gun oil is not suitable for stock care!
Optics: Please refer to care instructions
of the optics manufacturer.
CAUTION:
When oiling hunting rifles, care has to be
taken that no oil or grease gets into the trigger
and action system. Under certain conditions,
oil and grease can resinify (harden), causing
dangerous disruptions of functioning. Please
have your rifle checked by your specialised
dealer prior to each hunting season or hun-
ting trip. Every rifle is a piece of technical
equipment requiring regular checks.
12. Warranty Conditions
1. Manufacturer’s warranty
Warranty of Blaser Jagdwaffen GmbH is provided
in addition to statutory warranty claims by dealers,
provided, that the enclosed firearms certificate is
filled in completely and received by Blaser Jagd-
waffen GmbH within ten days after the date of
sale. Warranty is provided exclusively for the first
purchaser having his residence in the country of
purchase.
The warranty applies to the metal and plastic
parts of the rifle only, including original Blaser rifle
scope mounts, but not the rifle scope. Wooden
parts of the rifle require special care and, being
natural products, are subject to natural changes.
Warranty for wooden parts is excluded.
The warranty period amounts to ten years, star-
ting with the date of sale. It includes any defects
of and damages to the rifle (metal and plastic
parts), which are proven to be due to faulty mate-
rial or manufacturing. Within this framework, the
manufacturer shall bear the costs for material and
working time. For performance of work under
this warranty, the rifle has to be returned to the
specialised dealer or the production company in
Isny.
Risk and costs of transportation of the rifle (out-
ward and return) shall be borne by the customer.
Warranty is performed in the discretion of manu-
facturer by repair or replacement of defective
parts; replaced parts pass into manufacturer’s
property.
2. Warranty for gun efficiency
The firing precision of a gun depends on a multi-
tude of factors. The most important factor is the
ammunition. Not every barrel fires equally well
with every type of ammunition, there may be con-
siderably differences in efficiency. The scope and
its mount are of the same importance. Parallax,
loose reticles, defects in reticle adjustment and
faulty mounting are the most common causes for
unsatisfactory gun efficiency. For these reasons,
you should use branded scopes, mounted by a
specialist, and you should tune in the ammunition
to your rifle by testing several types of ammunition.
Ammunition of the same make and charge may
exhibit different efficiency and impact point
characteristics from one manufacturing run to the
other and from one rifle to the other.
When the optimum of ammunition, rifle scope
and mount were selected, we provide a warranty
for the excellent efficiency of our rifles.
Complaints regarding gun efficiency have to be
brought forward in writing within 20 days after
the date of sale. We reserve the right to submit the
rifle to an independent institution for verification
(DEVA or Staatliches Beschussamt) [government
proofhouse]. If excellent gun efficiency is confir-
med there, we are entitled to claim the costs
incurred for the tests from customer.
3. Scope of warranty
Work performed under warranty does not cause
any prolongation or renewal of the warranty period
for the rifle or built in spare parts. The warranty
period for installed spare parts ends at the same
time as the warranty period for the entire rifle.
4. Guarantee exclusion
The guarantee shall be excluded with:
• Damage that is caused as the result of normal
wear and tear, with non-observance of the ope-
rating instructions or improper use or handling
and if the gun shows mechanical damages of
any kind.
• Damages that are the result of force majeure
or environmental influences
• Repairs, treatment or changes to the gun
performed by third parties
• Use of reloaded or non-CIP-permitted
ammunition
• Blueing carried out by a third party
The guarantee does not apply for optical sight
equipment and telescopic sight mounts of manu-
facturers other than Blaser Jagdwaffen GmbH.
More extensive or other claims, especially those
that refer to compensation for damages that go
beyond the gun itself (consequential damages)
shall be excluded (provided liability is not legally
ordered as compulsory).
