As per the good recommendations of some of the membership, I ordered a Mossberg +2 Mag Extension for my 590A1 back on April 7th from the Gun Connection in SC.

It's going on a 16 week wait for the +2 Mossberg Mag extension and I'm feeling that Craig Price is going to stiff me for the $65. He sent me an email in July stating that he was shipping out the +2 Mag Ext the w/o July 16th and that's the last I've heard from him. It's almost a month later, no product was received and my last 3 emails have gone without a response.

Consider this a warning to the rest of you, this guy Craig Price from the Gun Connection seems to have gone underground and has taken my $65 with him. I'll keep you all posted if anything changes but buyer beware...no wonder he insisted on a postal M/O. What a POS.

that right there would be enough for me not to deal with him.  I never ever buy anything with PMO checks etc.. or deal with business that don't accept CC.  I use a CC for all purchases for the simple reason of what happened to you, not getting what you paid for.  

know how many times some businesses  tried to rip me off?  3 . know how many actually did? 0. I  called my CC company and they charged back those assholes.  and on top of that,  it gave me a  warm and fuzzy feeling to know that  they got hit with a high charge back fee.  that's what they get for being a dick and asshole

good luck getting your money or stuff.


lessons learned, use a CC for purchases.  if you are going to buy stuff with a PMO, either to a business or private individual,  don't send more then you can afford to loose

I''m  sure someone will come along and tell you to file a complaint with the post office, they always do when there is a thread about someone getting ripped off. but the truth is, it  will do  about as much good as you shaking your fist.

Ciener will probably tell you that's not even average for custom gun work, an you should be glad he is gracing you with one of his products.


Dont forget he also charges a fee to look up your invoice...
