Would you buy shadow ops products at the foreclosure auction. Was the stuff any good? I might be able to buy a ton Of parts in bulk, but I am weary of Qc issues. I do not have enough Intel . Is it worth the risk to buy parts from a company that is out of business? Thoughts?

A lot of people lost their stuff when they went under.  There were some threads about it.  Maybe you can own their items?

I've got one of their billet lowers, it's very nice. I did hear that some of their later stuff was maybe a little rougher around the edges.

All the stuff is parts in various stages of completion, no personal stuff. All factory product. Mostly lowers

In person at the auction and upon at least a visual inspection ... yes. On-line ... no.

Online auction only.
It's fucked up, a lot of those receivers bear custom SN's, which means people paid for them in full and in advance.
People are due refunds that never got them. A fair number of them are customers of mine that got burned.

Lots of talk that these are out of spec units??? In particular the magazine wells on the lowers?

Maybe returned or never shipped because they were out of spec?

Some of the 80% lowers are already up to $40.00 each PLUS $6.80 buyer fee. And they are very unclear as to shipping cost. Someone is going to get burned badly!

I got 4 of the billets in today and the magazines fit as well as my old Colt, did not check it against any of the other I have.  What is the problem with the out of spec mag wells?
