Decided to make a sticky of web sites - purveyors to avoid -that have a bad rep, etc.

The first one for the list is from a post in this forum:

http://www.obxammo.com/main.sc - Alpha Male had a bad experience when trying to order some mags from them.

http://www.gunsnet.net/showthread.php?15052-OBXAmmo.com-Scam

When posting in this sticky thread, please give all of the information - site addy and explain the reason to avoid. Thanks.

http://www.bing.com/search?q=florida+gun+works+rip+off&src=IE-SearchBox&FORM=IE8SRC "florida gun works rip off" gets 102,000,000 hits on Bing...

On the old board hardly a week went by when some newbie came along wondering why they didn't get what they ordered. Go look at the web site; they advertize items no longer available, that they do not have in stock and will take the order and charge you the same day. I've never understood why the owners haven't been in jail for years...

O.S.O.K.

Agree with automan459. Sent my Rough Rider '74 to owner Chet Durda (Lancaster Arms) gave me the run around. Never sent a replacement or a refund. Won't answer e mails or calls. That was August 2011!!! AZ Atty. General 'looking into' my complaint. Even a web sight called Lancaster Arms Sucks. Google it and be educated.

Add SOG to this list. I ordered a PAP M-92 pistol from these guys on 12/20 did an online order. Told my frieend about the deal and he ordered two of these in a phone order on 12/22.......On 12/26 I was emailed that the price had gone up $100.
I called my friend and he said his had shipped at the advertised price. I called SOG and told them about this, they said nothing they could do K the increase or canxcel the order. I told them to shove it and that they had now lost a customer and referals from me.
