Tennessee-based Champion's Choice is recalling about 70 Walther Air Cylinders for air pistols because they may burst, creating a safety hazard to users, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said Wednesday.
The company has learned of one associated incident that resulted in a minor injury.
The recall affects model /WALTHER 85 cm3, with the imprinted test date between 6 00 and 6 01 2000/2001.
The cylinders were sold in U.S. stores from 2000 through 2002 for about $47 US.
Consumers should depressurize the cylinders and contact the company for a replacement.
