    If any shop engraved THEIR logo on MY gun, I'd sue their asses! I'm not advertising for ANYBODY! I won't drive a car off a lot until their dealership badge is removed, and I won't even wear Harley t-shirts anymore. Want me to advertise your business? Let's discuss appropriate ad rates.

    Geez, their have been some bad experiences.

    On a good note, my buddy had a deformed gas port in his Mini-14 barrel and they did a good job reshaping it. It took 6 weeks, but....

    I recently called about doing some non-destructive testing (magnetic partical inspection or dye penetrant) on an AK-47 trunion and they said it would take 6 weeks and $150. I just can't wait that long.

    Question for the people that have the logo on their guns.
    Were you informed, ahead of time, they were going to do it?
    Did you agree to it?

    Not to the best of my knowledge, it's possible that I overlooked some kind of fine print somewhere. It was quite a while ago.
    I didn't demand they fix it because I just wanted to get away from those pricks, and I seriously believed that they would do the gunsmith equivalent of spitting in my food.
    A plan is just a list of things that don't happen.

    Where is this place, anyway? Address, etc. I'd kinda like to go in there and waste their time, cause some irritation, piss 'em off if possible. Maybe even mention what horrible things I've heard about the place on the internet. Not just on this site either, I've read about them on some 1911 forums too.

    Found this while poking around for info on Gunsmoke.
    Gunsmoke - Owner Rich Wyatt Intimating Gunshop owner, Trys to Browbeat and interragate Consumer over a refund Wheatridge Colorado
    I heard about the class on handling guns on the Peter Boyles show. I signed up on the phone in April for my daughter and I to take the class. The total cost was $1500 and the first available class was the end of August. Because of changing circumstances, we decided to cancel the classes and about 2 weeks ago My daughter called to cancel. The employee on the phone said the classes were non-refundable and that we signed a contract to that affect. When my daughter called and told me, I informed her that I didn't sign anything and did not know that it was non-refundable. She called back and the employee said she would have to talk to the instructor and that he was out of town and would call her back. She had to call several times and finally was called back by the owner Rich Wyatt. These are the points from the conversation:
    1. He said we signed a contract and we were required to sign this within 3 days of signing up--she told him no and there were no papers signed.
    2. He said I was given a verbal instruction that there are no refunds--she said no.
    3. During the whole conversation he kept calling her a liar and kept talking over her and kept escalating.
    ...
    There is quite a bit more on the link - too long to directly quote it all...

    You just roll on the ground laughing if you'd seen the looks I've gotten from car salesmen when I demanded they either remove their logo's from the vehicles I purchased from them or pay me $1000 for short-term advertising fees (yeah, short-term as in "just until I drive off your lot").

    They've removed the sticker logos but thought they were pretty cute by leaving their logo'd license plate frame on. I've wanted to remov them right their on their lot, pull out black spray paint, paint over the logo, and re-attach the frame. - I just wait to do that @ home. I have driven back onto their lots within a day with the frame painted over (did it just last June when I traded in my truck for another truck). It was clear to me that they noticed, they just didn't say anything.
