I only placed one order with them and will not do so again.

I think they are overpriced, slow to ship and almost impossible to contact (as they do not give out a phone number).

Shop elsewhere.

Word on the street is that they are bad news to deal with.  I'd look elsewhere, if you can find what you need elsewhere.

When you send your money, they forget to send parts

Well I screwed up and ordered an Uzi Barrel from them.  At least they have not charged me yet.

They have a REALLY bad rep on most other boards as well so I have avoided them like the plague, you should too.

where is down there?

curious.

consider they have been in business for some time- which rip-offs, poor service outfits usually do not realize.

Not defending them since I have no 1st person experience, but internet mis-information has ruined more than one decent company

Think that's about the barrel ban the ATF conjured up outta thin air. I think the part about frames and recievers is a lie but I've heard of the barrel ban. For some reason, the ATF has now banned the importation of non-US made barrels. Of course, we all know you can kill twenty people with a bare non-US barrel! Same as you can do with a non-US gun with less than 5(?) US made parts. And of course, the most dangerous part, the reciever!

ETA: I've heard bad things about Florida Gun Works...first thing I was told when I asked someone about them was "CLOSE THAT SITE AND NEVER OPEN IT EVER AGAIN!"

They suck!

I had a friend phone order a KAC 300m BUIS from them years ago. He was assured it was authentic. It turned out to be an airsoft POS and it took him two months to get his refund.

AVOID that place. They screwed me on a Polish AK kit. It was supposed to be "excellent" condition but looked like it was run over by a truck! I returned it but got shafted for a restocking fee.
