16. Please
explain the Sig Sauer Certified Pre-Owned Certification program.
What
is Sig Sauer Five-Point Factory Certification? Each Factory
Certified Pre-Owned SIG SAUER is field stripped, refitted with
original factory parts where needed, cleaned and lubricated,
function tested and hand-inspected by a certified Sig Sauer armorer. Does the Factory
Certified Pre-Owned SIG SAUER come with a warranty? Yes. Each
Factory Certified Pre-Owned SIG SAUER comes with a one-year warranty
from Sig Sauer. Do all used SIG SAUER pistols come with a warranty?
Only the Factory Certified Pre-Owned SIG SAUER pistols carry a
one-year warranty backed by Sig Sauer. Make sure the pistol you
purchase is a Factory Certified Pre-Owned SIG SAUER. How will my
Factory Certified Pre-Owned SIG SAUER be packaged? Each pistol is
repackaged in a Sig Sauer lockable pistol case. It is tagged with our
“STOP” tag and wrapped in plastic for protection. Included in the
case will be an owner’s manual stamped “PRE-OWNED” in red, a cable
lock, and a second magazine. How do I know I’m getting a Factory
Certified Pre-Owned SIG SAUER? Our Factory Certified Pre-Owned
pistols now ship with a blue grip band identifying it as a Certified
Pre-Owned SIG SAUER. Some pistols have already shipped without these
grip bands so look in the pistol box for the owner’s manual. If it
is stamped “PRE-OWNED” in red and comes with the blue Sig Sauer cable
lock then you know it is one of ours. You will also find our
standard “STOP” tag instructing the owner to read the owner’s
manual. This “STOP” tag will also be stamped “PRE-OWNED” in red on
the back of the tag. Are high-capacity magazines included? Each
Factory Certified Pre-Owned SIG SAUER pistol comes with 2 standard
capacity magazines. What is the condition of a Certified Pre-Owned
SIG SAUER ? The condition of a Pre-Owned SIG SAUER pistol will vary
depending on the amount of wear, such as that caused by a holster or
rings, and that condition will be reflected in the retail price.
Pistols that have shown excessive wear on the slide when received at
the factory will often have the slide refinished in our rock hard Nitron® finish. Are the frames refinished? The alloy frames of a SIG
SAUER pistol are hard anodized for durability and performance.
Though a pistol frame may show minor “dings” or ring wear, the frame
is not refinished as part of our Factory Certification process. Does
Sig Sauer replace worn internal parts? Absolutely. When going
through the Five-Point Factory Certification process, the Sig Sauer armorer
looks for worn parts. When worn parts are discovered they are
replaced with original factory SIG SAUER parts.
18. What is your return policy?
YOU HAVE A
3 DAY INSPECTION PERIOD BEGINNING AT THE TIME THAT YOUR MERCHANDISE
ARRIVES EITHER AT YOUR MAILING ADDRESS, OR IN THE CASE OF A MODERN
OR CURIO / RELIC FIREARM, AT YOUR FFL DEALER'S MAILING ADDRESS.
During this period the firearm is not to be fired or disassembled.
If your merchandise was not damaged during transit, and you wish to
return it, please contact me and briefly explain the problem. A

are the responsibility of the manufacturer. We will be happy to help
you if you have a problem with a manufacturer honoring their
warranty.
