Huh? What went wrong there? I Know Jack and he's a good guy... Can you give more details about what had happened?

Same deal. He was advertising Rock River uppers for sale, at a really good price. So I bought 2 from him. When they got here, the barrels were marked "M1S". When I contacted him he told me that the upper reciever was Rock River, but the barrel and bolt weren't. To his credit, he changed the description in his ad to something like "Custom shop AR15 complete upper, RRA parts" or something like that after I talked to him about it. this was a little under a year ago.

I'm sure it wasn't done on purpose... Jack has always treated me right and has never tried to get over on me either... In the past a couple buddies of mine had a few problems with parts that they purchased from him but both times he made it right... And never was it do to false advertising... The problems they had were an out of spec upper receiver and a loose barrel nut on a complete upper...
Now lets get to what kind of guy/businessman Jack is...
The out of spec receiver wasn't discovered as being out of spec for at least 10 months after it was purchased... Jack replaced it for free, no questions asked, just an apology is all he had to say...
The loose barrel nut was discovered 6 months after it was purchased and after disassembling it I had noticed the extension pin alignment slot was a little damaged and so was the nipple end of the gas tube... Jack replaced the receiver and gas tube for free, no questions asked, just an apology is all he had to say...
Myself and others I know have spent thousands of $$$ buying parts from Jack and these are the only two things that had ever went wrong... Jack, like any decent parts dealer, gets a few bad parts now and then that ends up being passed along to their customers, but its not done intentionally...
For those people that frequent gunbroker.com, go look at Jacks feedback and then look at FTF's feedback, you will then believe everything I just said...
Sorry jfk for the small hijacking of your thread, Just had to let everyone know a little about Jacks character so people don't think hes a bad guy...
