Well this really sucks
« on: November 18, 2009, 10:24:05 PM »
Finally got enough scratch set aside to order a custom shop 1911 bullseye pistol. Did that in march with the expected delivery date of 8-10 months. Call them the other day to see if they would contact me or my FFL on when the pistol would come home. Guess what? They didn't even start it because the order was never processed. They blamed my FFL but it was their fault. I really didn't care who was at fault as long as I when ahead of the pack to get it finished. Nope back to the near end of the line. I guess they have all the work they need because they never went out of there way to keep my business. Who am I? Nobody of course. So much for my Christmas present to myself.

Ask for your money back?  That thing better come with a force field and be able to clean itself for that kind of wait.
The person who has nothing for which his is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

Man, that really does suck. Sorry to hear of your problems.
There's too many shops out there to keep monkeying around with this one, unless you're really set on them.

Good luck.

I'd get my money back and go to some one else, I'd also put the FFL on a major guilt trip.

It's obvious thet don't care about you or your future orders. I'd hate to see what they would do if you had a problem with your .45 once you had it. You gave them a chance to make things right. Get your money back!
