Gentlemen,
The Command Arms Accessories Saddle Stock, SST1 will be in stock and ship December 16, 2005. For those of you who do not know all orders for TDI in the United States will be shipped from C.A.A. So by ordering direct from TDI-Arms you are actually slowing down the process, not speeding it up. www.commandarms.com |

OMG I thought that very same question, we are soooooooooooo gay! |
|
|
Is CAA an AR15.com "Industry Partner"? I like to buy only from those who support this website.
|

Speak for yourself there, slick! |

From a business perspective, your logic is skewed. This is from the website that you've listed:
So, what "the new company" should have done was anticipate that consumers would order from the TDI website. To alleviate "your" order fulfillment problems, "the new company" should have provided a switch over statement on the TDI website and provided a link to "the new companies" website. Better yet, "the new company" should have put in place an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system or, at a minimum, CRM (Customer Relationship Management) software. This way, "the new company" wouldn't be b*tching that the "customers" are causing the "order fulfillment" issues that "the new company" is experiencing and created ! |

How do you specify what color you want this part to be on the website?

Fellow ARCOMers,
Command Arms Accessories is terribly sorry for the delay in the SST1 saddle stock. As many of you know we are committed in releasing quality product into the market place, this unfortunately causes manufacturing delays that are inevitable. The SST1 in black, OD Green, and Tan will ship this Thursday, December 22, 2005. We here at C.A.A understand the aggravation related to waiting for anticipated product, and would like to offer free shipping and free patches for cleaning your weapon. I know this doesn’t extinguish your irritation, but I hope it shows we are commitment to customer satisfaction. All of C.A.A products come with a life time warranty and 100% customer satisfaction. We have also made the following corrections to our website thanks to your feed back. Greatly increases the cheek support while shooting And have altered the site to allow the purchase of OD Green and Tan. http://www.commandarms.com/product.asp?pID=85&cID=57 Gentlemen if you have any questions please contact me… |

Sir we have been trying for some time to become a partner and advertise on their banner. For some reason this has been incredible difficult. I have gotten to the point of reserving a 2006 banner spot, but when it comes time to pay everyone disappears. Any suggestions out there would be appreciated.

For some reason this is a continuing problem, I think it is mainly because this site is not a full time job for anyone AFAIK.
ar15.com/messenger/sendMessage.html?uid=thebeekeeper1 Send an IM through the above link, and TheBeeKeeper1 will help you out. While it is not his position on the Staff to do it, he kind of makes things happen and has helped out several others who have faced the same dilema. Good luck with everything, and thanks for coming over here. Hopefully when a few members get their stock saddles, they can do a well written review with pictures and comments. |

I just realized that we are both Fellow Pennsylvanians. Unfortunately that means I had to pay Taxes But on the other hand, I will get it pretty quickly too
Cant wait to get it. |
|
Glad to see that you have the customer in mind. Based on your attitude, I can't wait to do business with you in the future. |
|
|
I appreciate the update, and since neither alien invasion forces have landed yet, nor zombie hordes risen from the grave, I am eminently capable of patience, and look forward to playing with my order when it arrives. |

I have a couple of questions. 1) Why did the package that I, and other fellow Arfcommers, recieve not have patches in them? Should we no longer take your word at face value when your company makes promises? 2) Why did my cheek rest arrive today, January 05th, when I ordered it November 17th? More to the point, why were you unable to give accurate and honest assesment of delays? Is this something that Arfcommers shoud expect from your business? 3) Why does the cheek rest include no assembly instructions? Was that too expensive or difficult to insert along with the packaging? I'm eager for you to share your respones to the rest of the community... |

I orderd mine Nov. 17 and nothing so far.
PLEASE I have called only one time in mid. December and you said it would ship in a week. |

I clicked on the "EMAIL USER" button for CommandArms to request that they respond to this thread several days ago. Apparantly they have chose to ignore it (although they are the thread originator).
Perhaps some of the other Arfcommers on this board would like to contact them and express their interest in hearing CommandArm's side of the story... |
|
+1 for mr tic00--practically free shipping from him (ordered one 2 days ago, he got it out same hr!)! got it in, went on easily--nice tight fit, definitly worth the $20 imo h/w, i cant put my rubber butt pad on anymore or my sling.... |

Many times in this industry on the lower end of the scale you don't see professional business people. This is probably a smaller outfit, selling plastic add on parts, and they learned a valuable lesson here- don't blame the customer as they are your paycheck and if you can't do what you say your going to do then you will not be reputable in the eyes of your consumers.
I did however get my two stocks, thee weeks after ordered. They're cool I guess, cheaper than an LMT and once added onto your weapon they are sturdy to say the least. |

CAA is a combo of TDI arms, First samco and fobus. They are not small by any means just new.
As a TDI dealer I will admit that service has gone downhill since the merger. They GREAT guy I delt with (orin i think) no longer works there, prices have gone up, response time has gone up, and sometimes I dont even get a response. Im really hoping they get their act together after the merger is all done. They make some great stuff with a start making stuff for IDF. I can also say CAA has a huge amount of new items coming out and a merger to go through. I assume that is where the delay came in. The best best in many ways to order anything, always search AR15.com for suporting dealers and members that might be selling what you want. That way you suport the site, its members and you have someone that is known on the boards if any concerns come up. If anyone needs any TDI or CAA stuff email me [email protected] |

tReznr's couple of questions.
1) Why did the package that I, and other fellow Arfcommers, recieve not have patches in them? Should we no longer take your word at face value when your company makes promises? 2) Why did my cheek rest arrive today, January 05th, when I ordered it November 17th? More to the point, why were you unable to give accurate and honest assesment of delays? Is this something that Arfcommers shoud expect from your business? 3) Why does the cheek rest include no assembly instructions? Was that too expensive or difficult to insert along with the packaging? I'm eager for you to share your respones to the rest of the community... To answer tReznr's couple of questions 1) Sir in out hast to get your product out the where house staff mistakenly overlooked your instructions and patches. I would be happy to send you them to you. 2) Sir you can certainly not expect this from our company, you can expect that we will only release the best product possible. Unfortunately is causes delays that are not anticipated. 3) Sir we do have assembly instructions, again unfortunately the haste to get this product to you they were forgotten. I would be happy to email, fax or mail you the instructions. I am sorry for all the inconvenience; this is not typically how we do business. The merger is over and things are beginning to get back to normal. |

I appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions. I'd also note, however, that I asked the question over a month and a half ago. Oh, and I sent you an email requesting you to post in the thread in case you somehow forgot to check back in on it... No one here would have faulted you if you had posted and said "Hey guys, we have some delays that are beyond our control and we'll let you know just as soon as the stocks are ready to ship." Instead, you strung people along with promises that you couldn't fufill. I appreciate you keeping your promise to send out the patches. You can contact me via IM or email to get my contact info. Communication and honesty goes a long way in my book, and based on the way I've been treated (although I love the product) I'd be hard pressed to want do business with your company again. I'd urge you to closely evaluate the way you treated your customers in this instance and implement the necessary changes to ensure that it doesn't happen again. |

How is everyone liking these? Also has anyone tried this on an older CAR style stock yet? I know the top sling mount would at least have to be removed. They look nice.
|

How are they holding up?
Well I use one on my AR and one on my 12 guage . So far so good . |
