Good question, They are guarenteed for life. But since there no longer made what happens when one needs replaced? Will they trade a G-2 for it? Have they stockpiled a trailerload of them just in case? Who knows. I have had one for 20 years and it's no where near worn out. And I shoot them alot.  KN

There is no reason for your kids, grandkids and their kids to not enjoy shooting the same contenders you are using right now, as long as the pressures are kept with the design of the contender.
