Y'all:
When we get back into Texas around the first of October, I'll be looking to acquire a 1911 sub-compact for me and a Springfield XD 9 sub-compact for Mrs. Oldgringo. Does anyone here have any experience, to share, with:
* Budsgunshop.com
* Cdnnsports.com
I surrendered my FFL a dozen years ago. Does anyone have any experience, to share, with a reputable FFL transfer agent in the Pineywoods?
Thanks and
Viva Palin,
Mr. and Mrs. Oldgringo - CHL

I have dealt with Bud's more than once, and they have done me right.
I have not bought a firearm from CDNN, but have ordered accessories without problem.
I will definitely do business with Bud's again without hesitation.

I bought a gun from Bud's last November and it still has not arrived. Buy the INSURANCE they offer!!!!!!!! No INSURANCE no refunds.

I bought a rifle from Bud's last month and it arrived quickly and as advertised.

Haven't dealt with CDNN in a while, but the sales tax was not a plus in their favor and had to be factored in the deal. Dealt with Bud's several times. Excellent service. Can't recommend them high enough.

Done business with both & have had good experience with both. If you're buying once you're back in TX then CDNN will have to charge tax on the sale since they are located here.

Having just had a shipment lost in transit from Bud's, make sure you get the insurance for a few bucks.
Bud's and the local FFL (Neal Smith) addressed the issue quickly and successfully with the USPS and the package was found, but knowing the package was insured for loss was worth the few extra dollars. That's a story in and of itself. Again, get the insurance.

Good advice!
That's way too much money to leave in the hands of the USPS

without any accountability (insurance) .

Absolutely - the few bucks for insurance is money well spent for the peace of mind!!!

If you deal with Bud's, do get the insurance. I just purchased a 700.00 revolver - insurance was 7 bucks. I have made several purchases from them with no problems.
