| I looking at picking up some black powder items from them. Any experiences with them? Will be ordering online & wanted to find out since I'm in VA. Thanks. |

I did a little research on FGW awhile back. Their address (did a reverse directory search) was actually a Mail Box Etc. type of place! No real FGW store. No real FGW warehouse! And no real inventory in stock! All this guy does is take your order/money and then orders the stuff from the same companies or businesses that you or I can order the stuff from directly. FGW is a ripoff business making a cut off of customers by just ordering and reselling merchandise for even more $$$.

Quoted:
Agreed.. a buddy in GA ordered something from them.. took months to get it, he could never contact them.... when "it" arrived..."it" was not what he ordered.
FGW has a well earned poor reputation - I'll leave it at that. after weeks of trying to contact them about it he got an email that basically said tough shit.. keep it. |

Vic I guess now we all know why FGW has much higher prices for everything than any other online C&R specialized site. |
