    Which suppressor did you order? Did they actually have the suppressor made or just a dedicated serial number?

    I had a SHDW-45 on order since January that I could never get any information about. I finally got fed up and let my credit card company deal with it.

    I don't know if I'd even bother sending in the $200 for the stamp, you think in 10 months they'll be around to give you your suppressor?

    Doesn't Paul live in Virginia? Is he moving here to take control of the company?

    Living in Longmont it is easy enough for me to swing by. I was interested in buying some of their lowers, or 80% lowers but they would not answer my questions I sent to them via email.

    Their website still says that they have some in stock. So I figured that I would just stop by and pick them up. Well four separate times during their posted business hours no one was there. They would not answer the phone numbers posted on their site. I went to their store front and the place was empty. Not exactly what I would call "working hard to keep up with demand".

    Finally I was driving by and some employees were there (I do not know who it was) so I asked them about the 80% lowers. Their response was "I don't even remember the last time we had any". So I mentioned that the web site still lists them as in stock and they just treated me like I was retarded for believing what their website said to the point of being outright disrespectful and condescending. So I thanked them for their time and will never purchase anything from a business that is run that poorly. This is all took place in July '14 so it is not like I walked in there during panic buying times.

    I know it is just beating a dead horse, but I wanted to get my experience out there because it shows that the problem is with the way that they are running the business (still). There are plenty of other fantastic Colorado owned and operated businesses that I would gladly do business with.

    Why are they still being promoted as "Partners" on the COAR15 pages?
    My Feedback
    Credit TFOGGER : Liberals only want things to be "fair and just" if it benefits them.
    Credit Zundfolge: The left only supports two "rights"; Buggery and Infanticide.
    Credit roberth: List of things Government does best; 1. Steal your money 2. Steal your time 3. Waste the money they stole from you. 4. Waste your time making you ask permission for things you have a natural right to own. "Anyone that thinks the communists won't turn off your power for being on COAR15 is a fucking moron."

    I dont think they are still? Other than this thread that keeps popping up I have all but forgotten them.

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

I wouldnt do business with the splinter group either. I think we should purge that company as well. for the safety of our members. If they could have fulfilled orders before they left, then they shoudnt be here. if by them leaving after money and orders came in gun owners across America got fucked over, then they shouldnt be here. If that is the case, and it seems to be something along those lines according to posts here.

    questions that need asked and answered.
    Did you receive any money that came from orders that you didnt complete before you bailed? could you have stayed any made sure people didnt get fucked over?
    While you raised the valid questions, I myself never did business with either, almost pulled the trigger (pun intended) with Shadow but never did, luck of the draw. If I was in those customers shoes that got screwed I would be pissed as hell, as I have been there myself with other "businesses."

    On that note, without knowing more than what is on the surface that we already know such as the "Owner" is a guy back east, the original crew walked out and started their own. I have no legitimate factual information about what happened internally that caused it, and who the blame should be given to or if everyone involved should wear the shame hat and unless one or all of them steps in and tells the whole story we may never know. So I am staying out of it as I have nothing to offer on the subject matter.

    I would not hold them responsible for what happened.
    They are not beholden to their job.
    If the captain is about run the ship aground, they should stay at their posts and go down with the ship?

    And to say they have a responsibility to "Gun owners across America" is ridiculous.
    It is a business like any other, a product is a product.
    Does this analog work? If this was an auto repair business, would you never go back to your mechanic at his new shop?

    I am not happy about what happened, I bought things from them and never had any issue.
    In retrospect it would seem I may have lucked out.
    I would not hesitate to to look up the new company and may just swing by to see them next time I am in the area.
    If your post count is higher than your round count, you are a troll.
