GAMO Air Rifles

December 6, 2006
GAMO USA Corp. is recalling about 14,000 air rifles because they can fire unexpectedly. The scope mount on these rifles can be installed incorrectly, causing the rifle to unexpectedly fire.

GAMO has received one report of an air rifle firing unexpectedly. No injuries have been reported.

The recalled air rifles are the following GAMO models: Hunter Pro, Hunter Sport, Shadow Sport, and F1200. These models bear the serial numbers 04-IC-415577-06 through 04-IC-579918-06. The model and serial numbers can be found on the left side of the barrel just above the front left side of the stock. Models Shadow Sport and F1200 look identical.

The rifles were sold by sporting goods stores and gun shops nationwide from June 2006 to September 2006 for between $150 and $280. Model F1200 was exclusively sold at Wal-Mart stores.

Consumers should stop using the recalled air rifles immediately and contact the company to receive instructions for returning them and receiving a free repair.
