There are a lot of unhappy JoeKin customers on the Gunsnet AK forum including myself.  I was warned on multiple occasions not to bash JoeKin and was finally locked out of a thread on that subject.  I started another thread asking why I was locked out and got a nasty reply from someone pretty much telling me to keep my mouth shut.  I replied back that I refused to shut up and was cancelling my membership because I didn't associate with dishonest people.  Now I'll make this my new home.

I think I have a lot to add to this forum especially when it comes to AK's.  I recently finished my own AMD-65 build and can answer questions on that also.

I wonder if there were any positive replies to my last post on Gunsnet or if they were deleted also.  Does anyone have access to them to check?  My login name was the same there as here.

The last post I could find of yours, no replies concerning what you said :



It's a shame that they are still charging CC's for items they don't have in stock. I had a Hesse AK on order for three months with the usual "next Friday" excuse every week. It's a good thing I canceled knowing what I do now about Hesse receivers.

This was a few years ago, I wonder why they still do this? I would like to order from them some day but not until they stop charging cards on things they don't have in stock. Does anyone think they're borrowing from Peter (your CC) to pay Paul in order to stock their inventory? That would be a smart way to do business in the aspect that nothing is ordered by them until it's paid for by you, but it sucks to be the customer.

I'm not making accusations, just posing a question seeing how there has been a pattern over a period of years.

EDITED TO ADD; I understand they could be having problems with their suppliers, but all of them all the time seems odd. I wouldn't pay the grocery store for tomatos that hadn't been grown yet.

JoeKen Firearms is up and running!!! They got a lot of good products out I can't wait to get my hands on.

So is this your way of trying to keep the peace?

Start acting like an aduly JJB or we will start treating you like one!

I don't want any excuses, you need to owed up to this and be accountable.

I am the owner of a lowly Romainan WUM-1 I bought in 97 and I don't know much about AKs being sold now.  So what's the word on Joeken, I was checking them out in SGN and they have several variants with new ban fee accessories.

Welcome...

And I did not tell you to shut your mouth, I just said to make sure you opened it in the right forum.

I wasn't trying to make trouble, I just been there and done that.  I know the rules and following.
Not because I want to but because I am a powerseller there and don't want to get banned.

You will be happy here. There are alot of good people here/

For future reference:  NEVER post a goodbye thread.  It can cause a frenzy, not unlike blood in the water amongst hundreds of sharks.  

There will be lots of jokes at your expense, with a high fives all around for successfully booting you.

I was banned for calling Thorton out on covering up for Guccicano - he was threatening me with NPIC - I challenged him to do it via Email - of course nothing ever comes of the Faux Seals threats - legal or ortherwise.

Is there anyone who hasn't been banned from that forum?

I've visited a couple of times and think I have an account there, now I'll have to go see what goes on. I haven't ordered anything from Joeken, having been pre-warned, but I'm happy to sacrifice my account to warn other potential victims, scare away the fish so to speak.  Why can't you just re-register a new account with a different email account. Anon Web based email accounts are easy enough to obtain.

sacmaster: Welcome. It's always good to have people that believe in morals and values on ARFCOM. Joeken has stolen, lied, and then (even worse) acted like he did nothing wrong. It's great to see you a resident of AR15.com. Welcome, and enjoy yourself here. We're basically family.

there isn't a dang thing wrong with arsenal inc.

they are a fine outfit that refuses to submit to blackmail and extortion. they told the dorknutz to go take a flying leap...along with a dozen other outfits.



AH. Good to know. they (Arsenal) had an AK74 variant underfolder that was very nice indeed.
I really like the setup on it, first no-ban I've seen with a well done underfolder.

Thanks Chromebolt,
My post count doesn't get very high because I don't know everything and can't answer every question correctly from my own experience.  But when I can help someone out, I reply.  It just irks me when someone answers a post before I can, like that damn buzzer on Jeopardy.

It was when the little Arsenal Inc/K-VAR spat was going on. A guy on there who loves SAM-7s was trying to persuade that discussion of Arsenal Inc should still be allowed, but he was being shot down by Bowhunt(IIRC). Anywhos I PMed him saying don't let the bastards bring you down, and referred him here and The High Road. Next time I logged on, nothing would load when I logged in with my name.
