Oliver at Iron Ridge guns failed to respond to a RFQ for a refinishing job for 2 FAL kits I have and am in the process of building. He said he had to have photos of the kits which was a real PITA (a FAL kit is a FAL kit you know.) After getting the photos together of the kits and sending them off. Oliver never responded.

Albeit this was just an RFQ and not the biggest $$$ transaction, but I had every intention of letting them do the job because they are close to work for me, but I won't do business with them after getting the runaround like that. Had a Remington 700 5R Milspec I wanted to have painted but they won't be doing it.

On the other hand I have had good experiences at the "Loveland shop" but I go there knowing what I want and not needing a great deal of assistance. Their prices are reasonable and they have things in stock. YMMV.
