COLT
IMPORTANT PRODUCT RECALL NOTICE
Colt's Manufacturing Company LLC has determined that the Slide Lock Safety ("Safety") and/or the Recoil Spring Guide Pad ("Guide Pad") in certain Colt model pistols were not manufactured to Colt specifications and must be replaced. All of these Colt models were sold after March 2007 and the range of serial numbers affected by this product recall is as follows:
Model Serial Number Range
1911 WWI REPLICA 4597WMK to 5414WMK
1918 WWI REPLICA 1001WWI to 3431WWI
COMBAT ELITE CG10000E to G11293E
NEW AGENT GT01001 to GT04505
DEFENDER DR33036 to DR35948
TALO NIGHT DEFENDER NDF0001 to NDF0400
Ruger
We have determined that some Ruger SR9 pistols manufactured between October 2007 and April 2008 can, under certain conditions, fire if dropped with their manual safeties in the "off" or "fire" position. The pistols will not fire if the manual safety is in the "on" or "safe" position.
We will retrofit all affected SR9 pistols (those with serial number 330-29999 or lower) with these parts at no charge to our customers. In order to ensure correct fitting, the new parts must be installed at our Ruger factory in Prescott, Arizona. We will remove the old parts and install the new trigger group promptly, at no charge, and will return the pistol to you. The old parts will not be returned.
We have resumed production of SR9 pistols and the "330" prefix remains the same in both the original and newly manufactured pistols. However, newly manufactured SR9 pistols have serial numbers of 30000 or higher (that is 330-30000 or more) and original SR9 pistols have serial numbers below 30000 (that is, 330-29999 or less). Of course, if you purchased a used SR9 or recently purchased a new SR9, it may already have the retrofit parts.
RECALL NOTICE – BERETTA NEOS PISTOLS
Beretta U.S.A. Corp. has discovered a potential condition with Beretta .22 caliber NEOS semiautomatic pistols in which the pistol will fire even if the safety is activated and, in some cases, the pistols may fire if the safety is moved from the OFF to the ON position. Chances of either of these situations occurring is extremely remote and no injuries have occurred because of this condition, however, because of safety concerns relating to this situation, Beretta U.S.A. Corp. is immediately implementing a recall of Beretta .22 caliber NEOS semiautomatic pistols.
If you have a Beretta NEOS pistol, please send it to our Accokeek Maryland Service Center for repair. Instructions on how to send your Neos to Beretta is available at NEOS Service Home or by calling 1-800-BERETTA. Note: Some pistols are not subject to recall. Please visit NEOS Service Home to see if your NEOS has already been repaired.
Glock
It was recently discovered that some magazines issued for the Glock 35 (40 S&W) might cause a jam upon feeding the last cartridge from the magazine into the chamber of the pistol. This leaves the pistol with a slide partially open and the nose of the cartridge firmly jammed against the feed ramp.
The effected magazines have a number "5" molded into the follower (see image 1 below). Glock has produced new magazines for these pistols that have a new follower that now has "6." molded into the follower.
Oakland Police Issues an Emergency Recall of their new Gen 4 Glock 22 Pistols
After numerous pistols were reported to have suffered repeated malfunctions, Oakland, California's Police Department issued an Emergency order to their officers to turn in their brand new Gen 4 Glock 22 handguns this week, and replace them with their old Gen 3 pistols that they had just turned in days earlier.
So the officers are now back to using their old worn out Gen 3 Glock 22's, while folks try to figure out what is wrong with the new Gen 4 pistols.

PRODUCT SAFETY WARNING
AND RECALL NOTICE
Remington Arms Company, Inc. is voluntarily recalling a limited number of Model 710 bolt-action rifles as a result of its discovery, during routine test firing, that some Model 710 rifles manufactured between July and October 2002 may have been assembled with an improperly made "Safety Detent Spring." Although unlikely, there is a possibility that the manual safety arm mechanism in such a rifle could fail to fully return to the "safe" or "on" position.
If you own a Model 710 rifle please enter your serial number by clicking here to determine if your firearm needs to be inspected or repaired as part of the recall.
