Teufel,
I spent the extra money trying to get it here by today, which I had something planned with a group of guys, but that all got canceled due to the weather. Not sure why it's any concern of yours as to why I spent extra on shipping? |

This thread started off kind of lame, but the last half has been pretty good. I got a few laughs and had a question answered. I always wondered if deaf people wore hearing protection around loud noises.

I opened this thread thinking I was going to read something cool. Now I feel like I was robbed.

I do not laugh very often but I just laughed at this. Just cause my ears don't work doesn't mean my eardrums can't still burst. When I shoot unprotected, it still hurts my ears. |

Sounds like Jim Ellis Porsche is at it again. ??? Do tell. I've been a customer of JEP and have had a very good experience. In fact one of the best of any dealer, Acura of Athens being the only 'better' experience but that was due to the wife. Saw it but didn't really read all the details so didn't know it was JEP. Sucks but why would you leave a gun at ANY shop? |

Man, get in touch with one of us or make a thread about what you're looking for. No need to send shit off when there's locals to handle it.
You answered my question as well. |

View Quote i agree with this, there is a lot of local talent that can assemble rifles, even do coating work, and machining. my reference to being vague is not naming the company your having an issue with. you start a thread on a internet forum then give few details and wonder why people have questions. Mike said it best, anytime you send out a weapon, i can take FOREVER, that's happened to me, but i have a safe full of black rifles and pistols so i don't care. airing out your grievances doesn't go as planed around here, be glad it's the HTF and not GD |

I shot clays with a guy that had in-ear hearing aids. When he got ready to shoot he'd just turn them down. Not that I'd want to have hearing loss but if I did I'd want those.

There are two types of hearing aids, ones with molds that you can put inside your ears and that's basically an amplifier. The other kind of hearing aid requires surgery, and is a cochlear implant and it is hardwired into your nerves. The first option doesn't work very well for me and a lot of noises are hard to distinguish, so I don't have hearing aids of any sort.
I talk and lip ready very effectively, so I've gotten by without the use of them. |

One of the guys I play Paintball with is deaf and has a killer car stereo in his truck, but all the money is in the Zero to 300 Hz part of the frequency range. He feels the beat, doesn't hear it. He almost got arrested the other day after getting pulled over for a too loud stereo. The Officer thought he was being a smart ass when the officer asked him to turn it down and he cupped his hand up to his ear and said, "WHAT? I can't hear you I'm deaf!" I don't care for it when he plays against me because he doesn't hear you yell HIT and he keeps lighting you up if you stand up and say Hit. His eyes pick up everything since they are his only sensory source. |

Not sure why it's any concern of yours as to why I spent extra on shipping? View Quote You are missing my point, Piss Poor Planning (not getting it bought and coated sooner) on your part, doesn't make it an emergency on the part of the Vender. AND if you had bought it sooner getting it coated sooner, then you would not have had to spend the outrageous amount to have it Next Day Aired both ways. Lastly, if the event was going to happen that soon, I would have installed or asked for help installing the LPK then used the lower for the event, then have it coated at my leisure afterwards. But that is just me. It is not my concern, but you are airing your foolishness for everybody to comment on. Who gets bent about a Cerakote job? What were you going to do if when you got it back on time and it wasn't correct and the Upper would not mate to the Lower? The money spent on shipping was probably enough to buy a complete second lower. Of course this is all after the fact and hindsight is 20/20. Additionally, it didn't happen to me so I have no way of knowing or having all the facts, but it still seems that the Vender is not in the wrong here. You didn't plan far enough in advance and had an unrealistic expectation of when a job would be finished that you had no prior experience with. |

It does not matter how poorly the OP planned what does matter is the vendor who has yet to be named agreed to complete the job within a certain timeframe and failed to meet their obligations. On the other hand the vendor probably has better things to do than turnout work when promised. td |

If the vendor stepped up and said they could do it, then it IS their fault. Do they not know how to run a business or do you think its your job to tell them what they are and aren't capable of doing without even knowing their limitations? Regardless of the ops planning, only the vendor knows what they are able to do. The way I was taught, if a man says he is going to do something, he damn well better do it or keep his mouth shut. Guess that doesn't apply to what other people were taught including this vendor. |

Welp, I just finally got tracking late last night after two days of being told I'd get it early Monday morning. Tracking shows it will arrive this morning, probably between 10-11AM.
I am out of town for work, but when I get home and inspect everything, I will report back. In the meantime, I'll just leave a clue on who the shop is. _ _ _ _ _ S _ _ _ T _ _ _ I _ _ IF anyone can correctly guess it, I'll send a free 30 round PMAG! Let the guessing begin! |

For some reason, I can't separate the two words, but the T signals the start of the second word. Just a FYI.
