Just a respectful heads-up People I have had a handful of calls asking about Tac Ops rifles for sale here over the past few years. A few of you unfortunately bought a used Tac Ops that was completely shot out even though the seller stated it had 300 to 400 rounds through it. I keep a very good log on any first-time buyer (s) over the past 30 years. I have had to repair a few rifles for guys that got fked over by the sellers that had no integrity. If anyone is looking to purchase a Tac Ops rifle here, please contact me first with the serial number and I'll let you know the back story of the rifle and when I built it. I will also let you know telephonically ( I will not post their names here ) who not to buy from as I know there MO.
I am also happy to look at the rifle before you purchase it and give you a complete evaluation in writing if you pay the shipping to my shop...

I thank you all in advance for taking the time to read this...

Had life happen after a phone call with you and ended up not having the finances to purchase one of your rifles. You are a rarity these days and absolutely loved our conversation. Great guy, great rifles.
 
What are the differences in rifles? The site doesn't seem to take me to the various model's pages. Would love to get one some day.
 
I have to say two things.

First, this is stand up guy stuff and I love it. Dying breed man, kudos to you.

Second, I have to admit I’m a little sad. I thought this is the day, I made it, Mike is selling a used rifle and I have a chance at it.

Nope, no such luck. Just Mike being a good dude again. :)

Not my rifle, but here you go.

This is the most legit MF thing I have EVER heard of!?! “Here guys, I stand behind my work with full MF BOSS brass balls, that I’ll certify anything I’ve ever done. Even if it’s 30 years old. Just ship it my way and I’ll set the record straight.”

My next MF rifle is going to be a Tac-Ops. End of story.

🫡 ✊ RESPECT

I can vouch for this. Mike has given me the background on two of his rifles I've bought through this very site. It is a good man that takes time out of his day to support his product and brand, although the call is putting no money directly into his own pocket.

So I called Mike because it seemed off, I've had plenty of nice calls over the years and I've always had a great time talking with him.
He always helps out and goes above what he should to make the customers happy, or anyone he talks to really.
I heard about the phone call and was like wft.

It seems that he did tell you about the rifle and the person that used to own it and you called him a liar several times for no reason.
The guy you said he was going on about is the guy that used to own the rifle that you were asking about.
That guy ruined one of his Tac Ops serveral times so Mike told you about that and said don't buy the rifle but if you do you might get burned, and you called him a liar.

After hearing what happened the only thing I can think of is that this guy crapping up the thread is off his rocker.
Not only from his conversation with Mike but the fact that he is here openly lying about what happened.

If anyone is wondering what is going on you can call Mike at 310 275 8797.

Beware the guy crapping up the thread is a lying POS that jumps back and fourth between subjects and makes up issues that don't exist.

I'd advise to not call Mike just to gossip. He's a super busy guy and doesn't need people calling to gossip like school girls. If the guy called him a liar, who cares. Mike tried to warn him. It's own dumbass fault if he didn't listen and spent $6k+ or whatever on a used Tac Ops that is ruined.
 
Just curious, what got monkeyed with to “ruin” a Tac Ops rifle?
He kept running hot handloads through the gun and would shoot about 400 rounds in a weekend. His high pressure loads would eat the bolt face around the firing pin hole.

Correction/clarification:
He did that to a different rifle, twice and had Mike fix it. Then he shot the barrel out of another rifle and then sold it to someone else who then had to pay Mike to fix it. The rifle the guy is looking at hasn’t been fixed by Mike, but Mike knowing the history of the guy that is selling it told Valsports that it is probably messed up.

I remember a while back, someone sent a TacOps stock to have the DBM inlet recut for a different bottom metal. Mike offered to fix it iirc for the buyer of the rifle. It's a been a long while however so don't quote me on the second part.

Mike has told me the story of that dipshit. Not only was he burning the gun out he was lying about what was happening until he slipped up and let out he was shooting super hot handloads. And was still badmouthing Mike on different forums.

I think that guy is the reason Mike offers his consult for used rifle buyers. He knows whose good and who is a liar.
 
Just cause someone is banned doesn’t auto magically mean they are a idiot.

Being banned doesn't make you an idiot. But what this guy did, does make him an idiot. And he was banned for it.

If he buys the rifle he called Mike about then he should be committed to an institution.

This guy couldn't have hardly screwed up more.
 
Rare to find people with this level of integrity this days..my hat's off to you sir,coming from a small business man.
Appreciate the kind words...

Thank you
