Please post the warranty terms for the brand you are familiar with.
The question of warranty came up before here and on other forums. Is there a comprehensive listing somewhere where one can find the policies for each brand? Is the warranty transferable? In my decision making process to buy a $2,000-3,000 airgun warranty plays a huge role. I already paid in excess of 30% for parts/service on a high-end rifle that was purchased second hand and out of warranty. I am not complaining and I already performed many successful "internal surgeries" on my very complex high-end (older) rifle, but the warranty will be a major factor in my decision in the future. With more and more high-end U.S.-made airguns on the market now, I suspect that a smooth warranty-and-after-sales service is one their strongest selling points.
