I was rereading part of this message chain.

I'd bet that if EAA/Witness altered their return policy on the few guns that have had cracked frames or slides, they'd sell MANY, MANY more guns -- and more than compensate for the added costs to them.

The only complaints you hear about EAA has to do with cracked slides (and maybe a cracked frame or two), and Internet Hype has probably scared off THOUSANDS of potential buyers. (I've had a number of Witnesses, myself that gave good service, but would NOT buy a NEW one, for fear of EAA being unwilling to deal with a major problem.) A slide can't cost them THAT much!!

Somebody at EAA is being "penny wise and pound foolish." That miserliness on their part has cost them much more than their advertising budget can recoup.
