Originally posted by reh321 People are good about spreading Fear Uncertainty Doubt, but it is just FUD here. There are very few reports of this issue with the K-S2.
Few as of yet. Anecdotally these solenoid failures seem to appear around the 3 year old mark (plus or minus).
The K-S2 has been out for 3 years. But many are younger than that.
The K-S2 also didn't sell in the volumes that the K-30/K-50 did, so we can expect less reports at this time.
The point being just because there are less reports for K-S2 vs K-30/K-50 doesn't really mean anything at this point.
That all said I do agree that it is not worth worrying about. Stuff happens. Enjoy shooting and if the worst happens it can be resolved.
