I'm leery about this. Sinclair has been a great supplier of their loyal foreign customers. Brownells has refused to deal with non-US customers and have had no where the service Sinclair has offered. I sure hope Brownell's will not ruin Sinclair's corporate identity. - mike ********************* The rifle is a noble weapon...

For your sake, I hope so too, living across the pond. I expect things like that were thrashed out before the merger. You might want to e-mail Sinclair and check it out. As long as Bill Gravatt in in the loop, I look for nothing of consequnce to change. Don | |||

In all fairness, I should post the reply I got from Brownells:
If that is the case, I'll stay a happy customer with both.  - mike ********************* The rifle is a noble weapon... It entices its bearer into primeval forests, into mountains and deserts untenanted by man. - Horace Kephart | |||

If Sinclair is profitable and growing, it would make no business sense for Brownells to change anything. Hopefully this is just a merger that makes both of them stronger. *#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*# I'll never be able to give back to this forum all that I've learned from it. But I do want to thank those of you that have helped me out over the years. | |||

Bought from both in the past. I don´t like it! Sinclair was perhaps a trifle bit quicker, and competition is good for the Customer ... I hope I get my Goods, also in the future! ( in Europe ) H formerly, before software update, known as "aHunter", lost 1000 posts in a minute | |||

The Brownells quote or message is a lot of BS, the refuse to ship even as small items as bedding bolts or other small stuff as it being arms-related and not allowed to send to for instance Sweden. IN short we are seriously concerned over here as there is a large risk that we will not be able to get god reloading dies, BR bullets and other good things in life. I´twas a sad day yesterday. /Chris

always had good service and pricing from both. If they are smart they just leave Bill Gravett alone to make them money. Rich DRSS | |||

Bill is the head man at Sinclair. He is married to Fred Sinclairs daughter. I have been dealing with Bill, and others at Sinclairs, as well as Brownells, for many years. And I have had nothing but exceptional service from both companies. In fact, I would go as far as to say that EVERY individual I have ever dealt with in the shooting sport business in the US, has gone out of their way to be as helpful as they can. | |||

Saeed Bey, All the individuals in the US sport shooting business say you are an extremely pleasant person to work with. So what is your approach? Treat people the way you would like to be treated? | |||
