I ordered a GG&G M3 mount and a Streamlight M3-LED light from them.  They were cheaper than Botach on both items, out of state so now 7.75% sales tax, and they gave me a 10% public safety discount.

Order arrived in 4 days, correct and complete.  

The GG&G M3 mount is easy to install. Just drill two holes in the handguard. However one of the holes was right through a raised area on the INSIDE of the upper handgurd. So the bolt wasn't long enough until I used the dremel tool with a sanding attachment to flatten out that spot. Finished results look very clean & professional.

M3-LED light is very cool and has about 3 different modes of operation to select from. It combines a white light and a green LED navigation light. In an easy to remove package. It will fit at the 10 o'clock position without interfering with the Aimpoint Comp ML-XD on the forward carry handle mount. Neither the Green LED or the White washes out the red dot of the Aimpoint.  The M3 uses the same batteries as a Surefire 6P.

I have found Gary to be a very cool individual.
He's taken care of me on a couple of occasions,
both with very positive results...

Looking at his Ebay sales,  he gouges pretty good on shipping ($9.00 to ship a 2# pkg) though.

Realistically, though, most people gouge on shipping on ebay.  It's probably to cover the rising costs of advertising there.

Also, it's been a long time since I had someone charge me realistic UPS shipping for a small parts.  I paid $7 shipping for a front sight post from topglock.com recently.  Brownells is the exception, but their list prices ain't cheap to begin with.

Seems like everybody is pushing their price down and covering it with inflated handling charges.

I have to give Arizona Gun Runners a strong thumbs up, they are cheaper than most, give an leo discount and provide A1 customer support on their products.  I had a Surefire bulb go after a month (I suspect too long for most to consider a new bulb on the house) and they got me a new one forthwith.

Gary is a cool guy.

His price is fair/average. But like to deal with him once a while.

It' s more than one year I'm waiting for $.100.00 credit from Gary for a wrong Elcan shipment , I wrote him so many times since then but always without any answer.
I also placed new orders asking the credit to be deducted from the new orders themselves , but , again , no answers.
It seems to me to be not a so really serious commercial behaviour.
Just my experience.

The only way to solve these type of problems, as an international customer, is to call the guy directly and talk to him regarding the matters.

Most of the time, emails or faxes are no use, and the other side would just ignore the problems.

Because you are so far away.

Sorry to hear of your problem PP.  Maybe he's a WWII vet

I have had a couple of nice transactions with him - EOtech 552 and ARMS #40 twice, same day shipment both times.  My brother has also ordered from him with good, quick service.
