I have been waiting patiently for over 2 months now for 5 custom serial numbered 100% rec from GreenLight Arms and after much aggrevation, threatning, and cussing this is what I get!! A monkey with a hammer could have done better than this!!! Since Chris won't answer the phone, take messages, answer emails, or any other form of communication I have been dealing with Blackwell Industries to get these recs Chris (CWToyota) owed me from an original order back in June. It is NO fault of Blackwell, they have been very professional and very helpfull and were also taken by this jackass butcher. I am no less returning them (to Greenlight Arms) for a full refund!! Don't EVER buy or send Greenlight (aka REDLIGHT) Arms any money!!
      STAY AWAY FROM GREENLIGHT ARMS!!! |

Damn. Those are some F'ed up receivers.. Chris should be ashamed, he has put out a product worse the Vulcan, or joeken has ever dared sell.. Those frickin things would need soo much work to build on, the should be considered 80% shells....
Bad juju Chris, you might have been able to pull out of the "RPK Debacle", but now this... You might want to consider finding a good job now..

Wow, and I felt like a monkey with a hammer with a few of the dings I put into my latest build... But man, my home rolled flat looks a whole lot better then this thing....
Aren't you glad they had months to practice before they sent you a receiver after they did some practicing? Perhaps they were waiting on a used flat bending jig and a sale at HF for a press and spot welder too... That is just awful... |

we did some at the okie build party that were way better than that, , ours were perfect.
I folded one up with a fricken HAMMER (no jig) and it wasn't much worse that that. |

That's an amazing failure of quality control. And letting 5 receivers go out like that in the same order....WOW! His rivet boltcutter tool is A+ quality, I can't believe these came from the same guy. Best of luck getting this junk returned.

You should get Elite FireArms to do custom Russian selector markings on them.

That looks like a Tapco flat, especially with the selector dimple and locator holes in the bottom.
I would be PISSED. |

WOW! I have seen these Receivers at the WAC Show built up on Romanian Kits. Some just didn't look right at all, and I sure wasn't going to buy one after careful inspection. I along with many were involved with that RPK Receiver fiasco. Thank GOD I didn't get one after all! Your Receivers look like SHIT, and after inspecting the ones at the Show, am convince these are indeed TAPCO Flats, bent by someone who obviously doesn't know what in the Hell he's doing, other than taking Peoples $$, and not responding for months on end. I think Greenlight is someone's idea of a SICK JOKE! I will NEVER recommend them to anyone, period!

BULGED YUGO TRUNION- that original pic from the post

I've been waiting since June for receivers and tools that I purchased thru a group buy on Weaponeer. Think I'll ask for a refund before they are shipped.

I was pretty happy with my Armory receiver. It leaned a little to one side and had a few burrs on the rails. Aside from that, excellent.
DPH is now selling "Ewbanks" receivers that might be ok. After the review of them, I wouldn't buy them, but some people were saying that they would.

You and I do not share the same definition for "Excellent"

Compare it to any other US receiver, and it's excellent. The pics of the Ewbanks showed the axis pin holes were deformed from the bending.
You've seen what was posted in this thread. A little lean and a few burrs are excellent compared to the other options!

Help me out here. Are we talking about Armory USA going out of business? Or DPH or Ewbanks? Or is "Armory" refering to another company?
The reason I ask is that the receiver I got from Armory USA *was* in excellent shape, no leaning or deformed areas at all. Everything fit like a glove. I was thinking about ordering from them again. |
