I'm assuming they are reliable since they have an ad here, but I'm wondering if they're fairly speedy.
Doing a shoestring budget build, but just don't want to wait forever. What are some experiences with them? |

I've dealt with them at least 8-10 times, excellent service and fast shipping every time.

Excellent company and speedy shipping even in the current atmosphere

Always fast and reliable in the years I've been shopping with them. One of my go-to sources.
|
|
[#5]
Between my personal and FFL accounts I must have placed close to 100 orders with them.
They are an excellent company. |

Ordered from them many times. Always shipped fast and great customer service.
At one time they were damn near giving away wolf 223 Wish i would’ve bought lots more. Bryan Freek’n Rocks |

I've been buying from them for around 30 years. From their ads in Shotgun News back in the old days. They wouldn't have been around that long if they weren't reliable and offered good products at a good price.
Right now shipping is slow and more problematic than usual, but if there are delays it probably isn't going to be at AIM. |

Yep, AIM is GTG. I've done quite a bit of business with them.

I Bought from them a couple of times in the last month.
Good to go. |

Do a search here on them, there was the same question/thread a few weeks ago.
No time to do that? I'll save you some time, Yup, they're GTG. |

Good to go, I only wish there were more surplus guns available

none better than AIM Surplus, been a customer of there's for over 20 years.
Their old store was right outside the steel mill where I worked. Cases of 556 for $170, 9mm for $110, oh those were the days |

GREAT Folks!
I've easily purchased more than a dozen times from AIM Surplus with Zero Point ZERO issues. BIGGER_HAMMER |

They are good to go but they are not the speediest out there when it comes to getting the order out the door. They are not really bad, just not as fast as some. My last three or four orders have taken between 3-5 days to ship, then the constant delays in actual shipping. Expect an order to arrive in a week to two weeks after placing the order.

Quoted: They are excellent. Fast reliable and knowledgeable.I've known and dealt with them for 20yrs and they are a great group of folks. View Quote Completely agreed. I used to look at my account history and be concerned about how much I'd spent. Now, I look at it and see how much I've saved. |

Quoted: AIM is good. It's the USPS you have to worry about. View Quote This is true. I know the lady who is the USPS carrier for my area, and she has had to work mandatory overtime and she said they've hired a bunch of temps and part timers because they have so much to deliver. The amount of stuff being ordered online because of COVID has really swamped all the shippers. The winter storms and other issues lately have really made it worse too. |
|
[#29]
Ordered a few times with no problems. But kind of like PSA they are usually OOS for whatever it is you're looking for.

Quoted: AIM is good. It's the USPS you have to worry about. View Quote I wish that were true. I placed my last order on March 13th and it still hasn't shipped as of today, the 17th. That is NOT super fast out the door shipping. I still don't even have the tracking number yet and my bank statements still show the charge as pending. AIMS is great, but their out the door shipping seems to be getting slower every time I order, and that is about once every month or two. |

[#35]
A+++ service, prompt delivery, orders have always been perfect, and fair prices.
AIM Surplus has got their sh_t together. ... Heck, I'd trust them with the keys to my house. |
|
[#36]
Aim Surplus is legit. Got a whole bunch of bits and bobs and mags from them in the last couple years.
Last week, I got an email from AIM saying they had some BCM uppers in stock. Ordered a 16" LW MCMR-13 BFH late Friday evening. Upper shipped from Ohio on Monday morning, and came in to me in Florida yesterday. FYI, those uppers are still in stock, and they're excellent. |

I used to use them a lot back in the day but after the data breach and then lost a box of hollow points when I bought a g43 from them, not so much
but that's just me |

My last order with them was delivered to my house before my card was billed.

15 years or more I have bought from them. they have always been great!

I’ve had great experiences with them. Most recent order was within the past month.

It finally arrived. When I got up the next morning after my last post I finally had the tracking number and then USPS had it to me in just a couple of days after they received it.
Now I am having problems with Magpul. They've had my order for 7 days and took my money 5 days ago, two were weekend days, but they do say up front that they may not ship for 5 to 7 business days and since it has only been five days so far, so I am not too concerned...yet. What irks me is they took my money out of my account within hours of opening on Monday morning (placed the order after hours on a Friday) but as of right now, the order has not been processed yet. COVID my ass, people are using that as an excuse to get away with stuff they would never have been able to get away with before the country went bat-crap crazy. Midway is back to their usual fast out the door shipping and even Brownells has stepped up their game with fast fulfillment of orders and shipping, and Primary Arms has never slowed down their getting orders out the door, so please, don't give me that COVID crap excuse; I was born at night but not last night. |
