They shipped the order.  The customs part, however, was not done correctly and the parts were sent back.



When I submitted the order, I was contacted by them with regard to payment.  I had to get a broker to pay Euros to their bank based on dollars that I provided.  Not really that big a deal (but they refunded me via paypal, so I think it didn't have to be that cumbersome).




The order was for their dust cover rail and two VZ58 side folding MP5 looking polymer stocks.  




Anyway, like I said, the customs part was jacked up and it was sent back. (Contrast this with Marstar, whom I've ordered from several times, and the stuff is arranged to go thorough a broker by them with paperwork correct, no issues).




They were very polite in my many exchanges with them.  




I suggested that they find a distributor in the US, because there is an interest in their offerings here.  It seems like they would be open to it.




I even offered to eat half of the return shipping cost.  They were insistent that they should have done a better job and wouldn't hear of it and refunded me the shipping as well.




So, they seem like good guys.

I purchased some parts from GunExpert and happily found it to be a positive experience.

I'm surprised to hear that the customs part got messed up, but I imagine that's the exception & not the rule.

My credit union helped me sort out the currency conversion - other than that, it was a relatively easy process.

Like you, I had very good communication & customer service from G.E.

So they're selling these on Ebay now.







Somebody else referenced getting one in another thread in this subform.







I just ordered it off ebay and it does say ships to the US.












So, hopefully I'll get it this time.







I'm gonna put this one on and I also go a zhukov adapter from RS regulate to put on a my second VZ.












Like I said, I hope to get it this time.







There were 3 posted when I "bought now" on ebay.







I guess that means there's now 2.







Total cost was $115 including shipping.

I think you might be talking about me. I bought a few part from that store on Ebay. No issues with them EVER.





I have a CZ stock and an MP5 type stock.

I just put it on. I like that it fixes the cheekweld issue with the issue stock (these are overmolded original wire stock).




looks snazzy, I think. i put a strap on the triangle, which is a good attachment point for me as I'm a lefty




haven't shot it yet though
