I've been in Law Enforcement for 21 years. I can't imagine any agency letting (key word) their Officers take parts off of anything to sell. Much less firearms. I'm sure some crooked Cops got ahold of something here and there, but for the most part I'm calling him a liar. |

Interesting, but I think he's full of shit. He just doesn't seem to want to give discounts.
Q: Do you offer Police / Law Enforcement or FFL gun dealer discounts?
A: No, I'm sorry I don't. Around 80%-90% of my business are PD/LEO or FFL clients, so it would be unfair to raise the price for only the minority 10% +/- of regular customers, especially when that 10% are typically my best customers ordering more substantial custom work then that usually requested by P.D. officers etc. |

Even just from random internet findings, it sounds like his followers are lemon-partying-it up with him. Oh well. To each their own. |

At least he's up front. You have to be REALLY good at what you do to get away with an attitude like that. Think about all of the ignorant sumbitches that ask him retarded questions 24/7 when he's trying to get work done. Think about all of the people who've never read an instruction manual for their weapon, never properly cleaned their guns or maintained them. Just shot them until they failed and wanted somebody to fix them. He's probably grumpy for a fucking reason. |

Jesus, reading this stuff makes me want to go out and get a six pack of Straub (since that's his favorite beer, I've drank many of them with him over the years) and a few cigars and drive over to see the guy who does gunsmithing for me right now just to show how much I appreciate him. He doesn't advertise so basically you either know him or someone who knows him tells you to call him, and he's still always busy. Even so, he's always happy to talk over what you want to do or figure something out for you. Hell he makes house calls if he likes you, doesn't charge extra either. I've known him since I was...well born basically, since he's a family friend, and he was one of my HS teachers, so he's been doing gun work for me since I was like 16 except for the times I was living elsewhere.
I knew he was an awesome dude, and does awesome work, but I never actually thought about what it'd be like to have to resort to looking for a guy to do work and then have to hope they weren't like the winner this thread is about. |

Send him a fully functioning gun and get a gun that misfires back but don't dare complain about it because even though your gun fired crap ammo before you sent It it to him it's your fault it won't fire it now.
Give me a polishing stone and a screwdriver and I can fuck up my own gun thank you very much.
