Reliability of Morini arms??

A guy in my club wanted to buy a Morini CM22M and called the Danish dealer to do so. His answer was that Morini guns in general were bad guns and that the people behind Morini arms were unreliable. He claimed that it was impossible to get spare parts from them and that they did only make few guns and when they did so, had to borrow money to produce them. Supposedly the Morini people use their time on making shooting ranges and grips and not so much guns.

The guy from my club was very puzzled by this answer, because why advertice with Morini on your website if you don’t want to sell it???? He knows the gun very well and loves it, so he is not a novice seeking advice, he just wanted to buy a CM22M alu, but the dealer wouldn’t sell him one…..

Could anyone elaborate on this since I was under the impression that Morini arms is doing fairly well. I know that their free pistol and air pistol are very popular and that the CM22 RF has gotten good feedback in here……

Sounds to me like the Danish dealer has an axe to grind for some reason. If he doesn't like said guns then he shouldn't be selling them and should de-list them from his website.

This is completely the opposite than what most feedback tell. Morini service seems very fast to respond and helpful (I used it myself several times) and the guns do not experience real problems. Sounds like the dealer prefer to sell another brand.

There is a big dealer in Scandinavia, he/you should contact: http://www.interprodukter.se/

Yep, Ronny has a lot of Know-how about target pistols in general and especially Morini. Negative opinions about Morini SA are rare, I'd guess the dealer has some kind of problem.

Karlslundesport don't buy from us. I suppose he buys from Gehmann in Germany. I don't remember he was buying any spare parts, and for sure not from us and as I said he is not our dealer, he his Steyr dealer as you car see at http://www.steyr-sportwaffen.at/siteLay ... 1973515d2a

I just would like to give an example here TB, I use Morini guns and the mentioned dealer in Sweden, and I have never had a better service than his. For example I needed to get my air cylinder fixed, I mailed it to him on Thursday afternoon and had it repaired in my mailbox on Monday the week after. So he has a great service no matter what you need. (And also some great powers that makes the swedish post move fast, but that's another story).

So the facts about Morini having bad service or problems getting spare parts to customers I don't believe at all.

I too use a CM22, old model now, and it has flawless in function. The service both from the mentioned dealer, interproduckter, and from the factory in CH has been very good. And Ive been a troublesome customer at times!
