Thread: Tikka t1X - Beretta NZ sales policy

As far as the shop owner goes, he's not able to get supply from Beretta NZ period, he's not a liar. Notice I didn't say other independents don't, I did check their website first, and I know first hand of another that does.

I don't own another Tikka (have in the past) or a Sako (have in the past) but there is a reason they are popular, and their new T1x 22 has some pretty interesting features, hence my thought of a pre-order.

Its a poor sort of bastard that does down another mans gear (except that you're not a man just a lily-livered keyboard warrior) someone needs to take you out on the hill and make you cry like the baby you are.

You should have another read of your original post princess. I’m sure that those meanies from Beretta and Swarovski are going to be utterly despondent that you won’t buy any more of their products till they change their business model.

I’ll start. $10 on @Proudkiwi

Beretta NZ have few retailers selling their products,

It is difficult to get an account with them if you are an independent

H&F get cheaper rates than the independents because of their buying power

This puts the independents behind the eight ball before they start

It’s alright I’ve sold both I’ve mine and moved onto better things! Mind you they were 223s so fault could lie with factory ammo? I have about 20 different packets and non worked. The 1:12 was worse than the 1:8. These were stock rifles with no mods, so I don’t give a shit who’s selling them, unless they’re free I don’t want one. Then I’d sell it to @Happy hahahahaha. The Remington is going great, err both of them! Especially the 204!

Must've been you...... Maybe they're allergic to you?

Splendid baiting by the way! Well played sir.

My 1:12 is a laser.

Yeah @Proudkiwi, I’ve got a tikka and you’ve really hurt my feelings, what a mean guy

Perhaps your local 'independent' gun shop owner was late paying his bills? That would be a good reason not to supply him.

Very common in the industry...

Not just the independents that can be late paying the bills......

Naughty @Proudkiwi, you shouldn’t bait Tikka owners. The nice man at H&F told them they’re the bestest ones - how dare you say different!

That's because they are!

If it shoots 'minute of animal/bird', it'll do me.
Can't understand these Finnish gun owners - how upset/hurt they get when someone disses their brand

He's not on his own. I have a pathological hatred for Beretta and their "Tikka" labelled products as well. Like Charles Upham and German cars, I will not allow a Tikka on the property.
Screwing the customer even further with this kind of retail bigotry does not surprise me in the least.

But you have owned one, eh Carlsen, and extolled its virtues until you found that the trigger mechanism required oiling...?
