They burned me twice, and burned my son twice. I don't even casually browse their site anymore. On the last time with my son, they took his money, didn't tell him till a week later when he PHONED to track his order that it was on back order. He canceled the order and they took 10 days and multiple phone calls by me on his behalf to return the money to his account.AEA wrote:Some here like them.....
Some don't (I am in this category).
I warned people here before......

In that thread you will see that they even signed up on this site (obviously notified by someone here that likes them) to post their spiel and the problems continued.
I think they are dishonest crooks, and their prices can be beaten.
EDITED TO ADD: I have had nothing but good luck with SWFA. When I went there to buy my new scope for my AR10 recently, they had the Leupolds I wanted to see in stock, an IOR Valdata I wanted to see, and of course the SWFA SS scope I wound up buying. They are rarely backordered on any items, and their prices are reasonable.
