Browning Maxus Review - Trigger Issue

As reported here earlier, I really like my new Maxus.  What I don't like is that it developed the trigger reset issue for which it is known.  My hunting trip to Louisiana last month was impacted by the lack of reliability with the gun.

I identified a Browning authorized repair company about 60 miles away from me, and dropped the $1,400 gun off there last weekend.  The good news is that it is already repaired.  The bad news is that I'm on the hook for a $75 repair.

What?

I'll be calling Browning today looking for an explanation.  Their failure to stand up for a known issue on a new gun is pretty concerning, and I'm hoping we just have a communication issue.  

Regardless of how it shakes out, I'll be posting it up.  Stay tuned.
