Playing dumb games

So I needed a Remington 700 bolt with the 223 bolt face. For 250-300 I could do with out. Then I found one for 120 at specific tool and gauge company. I almost ordered two bolts as they have them with the arc/grendel bolt face. 4-6 week wait time it says. Let's see how they do with in stock items first.

Anyone taking bets on where delivery lands between "better late than never" and "open a credit card dispute."

Order placed 7/29 order confirmation 7/30.

In. Can’t wait for the stories, hope you don’t have to go so far as a credit card dispute

I ordered an XM3 titanium rail from them. Was in stock and it delivered in about 3 days if I remember correctly.

Best of luck. I will just quote Mr. Dixon at LRI.

"There are two types of gun enthusiasts: "Those who have been fucked by PTG and those who will be."

I don't think I have ever had them ship anything inside two weeks. If I get it it before Septemeber I will be suprised.

Would be awesome if someone over there sees this thread and they next day it.

Ya but in-between there are people who only get bent over a little bit. I hear.....they have never, only bent me over a little bit. But 200 bucks is 200 bucks.

For the record. I wouldn't consider them late yet. I think their websight says expect 2 weeks for shipping or used to. It's been a little over 1 already though.

I ordered a recoil lug and some gauges. Think the gauges showed up in a week, recoil lug was about 3 months.

They've never not delivered, but their timeline is rather indignant.

The last thing I ordered from them was some Rem 700 extractors. And then I waited. And eventually I forgot about the order. And then several months later, an envelope showed up in my mailbox and I was surprised and delighted.

I ordered a 40X action from PTG 6wks ago was told they were waiting for bolt parts could be 12wks…action showed up to my FFL in 2wks.

I know this is not the norm because I’ve dealt with PTG in the past and have waited/forgotten about orders so I was shocked to say the least.

Everybody can catch the bug and have a change in culture. I bet there were only a couple people there responsible for most all the CS horror stories. Because I talked to a real nice lady on the phone there once. Then she was over taken by the CS Manager.

Reminds me of the local subway. Put signs advising their parking lot which is huge and given to them by the city is for thier customers only.

No doubt people were parking in their lot and going to the new restaurant that just opened next door. Yep, it's a small town and people were excited. Now what better way for subway to boost their abysmal sales than pounding a couple fuck you signs in the lot the town gave them. For parking they don't need and won't be getting used by either place again after a couple weeks when the new shiney of a fucking Arbys wears off.

It's people with no plan and forsight that cant see and think past the next 5 minutes or current irritations.

LD out.
