SAFETY WARNING AND RECALL NOTICE BRENNEKE BLACK MAGIC MAGNUM 12 GA 3” CARTRIDGES

SAFETY WARNING AND RECALL NOTICE BRENNEKE BLACK MAGIC MAGNUM 12 GA 3” CARTRIDGES

Brenneke of America, L.P., has announced a recall of certain lots of its Black Magic Magnum 12-gauge 3” (76mm) cartridges. CUSTOMERS SHOULD NOT USE THE CARTRIDGES BECAUSE THEY POSE A RISK OF SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.  The recall applies only to cartridges from the following lot numbers, which are printed on the inside of the top box flap as shown at the bottom of this page:

1.0.01.07.08
1.0.02.07.08
1.0.03.07.08

If you do not have the box to determine whether your cartridges are from the recalled lots, please call the number below and Brenneke will help make that determination.  The recall does not apply to other lot numbers of this model cartridge or to any other Brenneke ammunition, including the Black Magic Short Magnum 12 gauge 2 ¾” (70mm) cartridge.  Brenneke of America, L.P. has determined that a limited number of the cartridges from these lots may contain low- or no-powder charges that may result in the slug remaining in the barrel. Firing a second shot into the obstructed barrel may cause firearm damage and may subject the shooter and bystanders to a risk of serious personal injury.  Remedy:  Customers SHOULD NOT USE the cartridges and should not keep them where they could be used by others. Customers should immediately contact Brenneke at 1-877-684-0477, between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Central Time, Monday to Friday, to make arrangements for the return and replacement of the cartridges. Customers may also call that number with any other questions about the recall.
