If you have had or are going to have dealings with Wild West Guns in Alaska you may want to read my posting under Gunsmithing.

Jesus dude,

I don't see any reason to burn these guys, they are no different than any other custom gun maker.

I have delt with them a few times.

Good luck, do what you think you have to do but I don't agree with this.

D99 - maybe you should take the time to start a thread with your positive experience(s) with them?

Instead of criticizing Harry for writing about his. Wink

Harry, to me, "custom" means CUSTOM. When you enter into a deal with a custom riflemaker, you've entered into a personal service contract, and WWGs needs to honor their end of it.

Here's what I'd do. I'd call them up, complain, and state that the rifle is coming back for revision, as per the original order, and that WWGs was going to pay the shipping both ways to cover that revision. If they were unwilling to agree to that, the rifle was coming back for good, and that WWGs was to issue a refund, including shipping costs.

They sound like unprofessional jackasses to me........
