I wrote to Accuracy International on December 29, when I was in the marrket for a bolt action precision rifle, and had not yet ruled out the AI rifles. I asked for a pdf (not physical) copy of the owner's manual, figuring a pdf costs them nothing, and surely they would want a prospective buyer to be able to see the manual in advance so he knows what he would be buying.
Surprise.
1. I did not get a reply until today, January 13, just over 2 weeks later. I guess selling costly rifles does not motivate people to answer prospective buyers' questions.
2. Here is the reply I got, verbatim:
"
Unless you purchased the firearm we do not distribute the manuals. however if you contact one of our distributors they would be more then happy to assist you with any questions you have.
Thank You,
Accuracy International
"
Now most manufacturers provide copies of owners manuals quicly and free, if for no other reason than to limit liability.
Glad I bought a Sako instead.
