well, i am back again and have more questions. first of all, has anyone dealt with sableco? they sell rra lowers for $95 shipped. from what i have seen on here, that is not too bad. also, is the buffer tube the same length on the post ban collapsable stock as it is on the A2? if so, can you use the same one if you want to change styles of stocks? also, after i get it if i decided to have some custom engraving done on the lower (assuming this is possible), i would have to have it re-finished. if i decided to do that, can anyone recommend someone to do that? thanks.

Donnie, Robert or any of the folks at [url]www.sableco.net[/url] are a pleasure to deal with and I have purchased from them before and as recently as this week. Ordered EOTech 512.A65 from Robert on monday, received it on wed. At a price that while was not cheaper than some as listed, because those some were located in my state and charge 8.25% tax, it came to my front door $18 cheaper. YMMV

Great folks and yea, I'll be dealing w/ them again.

Donnie, Robert and Krista are great people to work with!
also, is the buffer tube the same length on the post ban collapsable stock as it is on the A2? if so, can you use the same one if you want to change styles of stocks?

The A1 and A2 stocks use the same receiver extension(buffer tube), with the A2 using a spacer for length. The pre and post ban tel-stocks use the same receiver extension, with the post-ban version pinned in place. The fixed stock and the tele-stock receiver extensions are [u]not[/u] the same, and use different buffers and springs.

IIRC, my Bushy fake telestock had an A2 spring and buffer, and the fake telestock buffer tube is not the same as a real one. There is no section machined out underneath the tube that would allow movement, if it was not pinned. Anyway, the point is, my Bushy fake telestock had an A2 buffer and spring, not a telestock buffer and spring.

I got my RRA upper and some other parts from them.  Dealing with Robert was great.  Whenever I get ready to buy optics or another rifle, I'll call them first.

I wish my experience with Sableco was as good as the above posts. I sent them 3 e-mails asking if they had a certain product in stock that they sell. After 3 tries in 2 weeks I called.The guy on the phone took my name,number,and the product info and said he'd call right back.Three more days went by and no call so I bought it from another dealer.

How long ago was this?  Hopefully this happened while they were in the process of moving which would be understandable.  I have received nothing but great service from Sableco and their new partner RB Precision.

I know Donnie and Robert personally. I've been buying law enforcement equipment from Donnie for years, and will continue to do so because he is committed to delivering quality products at a fantastic price. Their business relationship with RRA (wich is only a few miles away from SableCo) is great, which allows them to offer you their products at such a good price. Every once in a while, when I buy something from soneone else, I always feel foolish when I find out how much Donnie and Robert could have saved me. They are great guys to do business with and I can't recommend them enough.

I know they wouldn't intentionally ignore a potential customer. To the person who had trouble contacting them, the only thing I can say is thet I know they recently had trouble with their e-mail and point-of sales software. If you somehow fell through the cracks, I'm sure it wasn't intentional.

Just my $0.02...
