Altenburg/Samick grand action problems

[Mike McCoy]

I did talk to Robert at Samick service today and he confirmed there are tight action center problems on certain models/serials and that repinning is the only sure fix, possible lubricating while applying heat with a hair dryer and working the parts at the same time would help. Also stated that Altenburg is responsible for the warranty but he would be happy to supply the pins is they decide they (Altenburg) want me to do the work. Very nice guy to talk to....

Thanks again troops....
