which one's Mo?

Quoted: Wades Guns, pretty much assclowns in my opinion.  My last two experiences with them; 1.  Took in a 98% 70 series Colt Gold Cup NM to have the front sight staked since it was loose.  After a couple weeks called them thinking it would be done since it's like a 30 min job at the most.  Still wasn't but they said they would get to it soon.  A few day later they calle dme, gun was ready to pick up.  Go in and get it, they charge me $50.00 plus tax which pretty much surprised me since it's such an easy job (my mistake, should have asked first).  So I pay the bill, come home and notice that retard who calles himself a gunsmith there, obviously didn't use the right tools when staking the sight since now I have an f'd up front sight that is crushed along the top edges.  Everybody tells me I should have immediately called them, and in hindsight i should have, but if that's what they call a gunsmith, I don't want him touching any of my guns again just to do more damage anyways. 2.  Last WAC show in Puyallup I see a Yugo SKS that catches my eye.  It looked great on the outside even though it was used, but knowing non chrome lined yugos, that doesn'tmean anything.  I ask the guy what grade SKS this was i.e. good, verry good, etc.  He said he wasn't sure, so I ask if I can look in the barrel.  Well he tells me then I can't because they have no more straps to tie the bolt,  At this point I'm pretty surprised by his response, but I tell him, hey I will buy this gun if I can look down the barrel and check it out and it is decent, so he turns to Wade himself and asks him if I can do that.  Wade turns to me and says no and that there all the same so if I want to buy it I'll just have to do it sight unseen.  At that point I put it down and just walked away.   Never again will I ever even think of buying anything from them, and because of damaging my Gold Cup and their crappy attitude I will tell everybody I know my experience with them.  Personally I hope their arrogant attitudes and bad service eventually puts them out of business.

I'm sorry you've had such a rotten experience with Wade's.  I'd like to relate two of my experiences with them, not to counter your claims, but to show you the other side of the coin.  I'd wager to guess that my experiences, while not common, are probably more common than the negative ones you had.

1.  I had a Colt 14.5" barrel that I wanted a flash hider permanently attached by welding.  I brought it up to Wade's, who's gunsmith at the time (Dave Helton) did this kind of work at home, where he had his welding setup.  He had orignally told me that it would take two weeks.  I was invited to an informal shoot in the mean time, something that I wanted to use this barrel for.  I called Wade and asked him if he could rush the job for me.  He said that it was a bit out of his hands, soley for the reason of Dave having to do the job from home.  He'd ask Dave, but couldn't make any promises.

To my surprise, Dave, through Wade, not only got the job done a week early, but when I went to pick it up, not only was the job well done, but when it came time to pay for it, they only charged me for the cost of the flash hider, the labor was free!  I'm not sure why or how, but I was happy none the less.

2.  At the same show at WAC, a good friend of mine looked through that same stack of SKS rifles.  We were there early in the morning, before the general public came in.  My tables were already set up, so we went over to look through Wade's stuff.  He had yet to get the ties on all of his guns, so we took the opportunity to eyeball each gun, then tied them off for him.  My friend, asked Wade if he'd give him the "good guy" price on one of these guns, as he wanted to give it to his son for Christmas.  Wade asked him a few questions about his kid, focusing mainly on the kids interest in shooting sports.  Wade must have heard the right answers, as the good guy price turned out to be "you can just have it"!  That didn't top his generosity, as later in the afternoon we went back over to Wade's table to thank him for the gun.  While standing there BS'ing, the Marine taking Toys-for-Tots donations came by.  Without skipping a beat, without making a scene, without expecting a pat on the back, Wade pulled out $100 and dropped it in the jug.  He then asked the guy if he could come back by at the end of the show, as his family had purchased, wrapped, and marked a few toys, ready for delivery to one of the TfT's recipients.  

For a guy that gets his fair share of bad press, I'm impressed with him.  I'd be shocked if any gun store or range in the state has as horifically huge overhead costs, yet he still shares the wealth.  After seeing him drive a 10YO Chevy with close to 200K miles on it, I'd guess that he's not calling in Brinks to take home the loot everyday.
