    Slow shipping and pretty lousy customer service is my experience with them. One of the front sight ears were cracked on the barrel I bought from them and getting them to exchange it was a hassle. After they finally did, I didn't have any additional problems with their product.

    No, this was a few years ago. I bought parts to build a rifle for my father-in-law for Christmas.

    I've had a bunch of random M1S parts and never a problem. My 9mm is a M1S upper and bolt.
    Keep Calm and Carry.

    I have worked on 2 barrels from them that were too tight on headspace. They looked like they were machined with a rock.
    I would definitely have headspace checked and don't expect fit and finish to be overly great.
