Seems quite a few of the larger manufacturers are test firing every single firearm they make to be sure it passes, and probably also helps with the liability insurance if you can prove every single unit worked going out the door, which I'll be discussing with my insurance broker.
So do any of you gunsmiths test fire your customers rifles and what is your procedure?, or do you not do any test firing because many high precision shooters can be quite particular as to their barrel break in procedures and what not?
I'm currently going through the process of trying to get liability insurance to cover firearm work and looking at all my costs and what I'll be comfortable with if it proves worth the trouble. I think test firing every rifle could be an important factor to both prove that all is working as it should, and also to get an accuracy report before it leaves. Which would give the chance to either tweak it better if needed, and to also have a proof in the event that someone went to someone who for any reason cannot get it to shoot well and then tries to put it on the guy who did the work.
So, what are the thoughts and general procedures regarding this matter?
thanks
