Sharp Shooters Supply Gunsmithing

[teele1]

Jon, you forgot they'd BAN you also
I've also been to the order, pay and WAIT and WAIT movie

I was told that I was gonna get banned for my next to the last post on the SavageShooters site and I did not mention any names. I did get banned for my last post, where I told Mr. Furious that I would put my boot up his ass. I will never spend another penny with Fred. There are too many other competent gunsmiths out there that can work on a Savage action. I guess I don't have what it takes to fit into their click.

That's too funny. I got banned from Snipers Hide for a somewhat similar remark to the head honcho. As far as SSS goes, where we park our rig in Ohio is only about a two hour drive to SSS, but I heard far too many horror stories to even consider doing any kind of business with them.

It's no lie about getting banned from Savage Shooters site. I've been banned there too! You are not allowed an opinion over on that site.

 

[gotcha]

Daveberg, Sounds like you've been banned from Fred's site If I were you I'd get ahold of the state of Ohio attorney generals office. They have the ability to do great things to help you out. You might also want to contact the entity that provides his business license. This transaction was interstate commerce? Lets face it. the problem you're dealing with is fraud. The law is on your side.

After reading all these postings about SSS, if someone still insists on doing "business" with them, don't complain when the results are less than satisfactory.

It was your decision alone, so deal with it.

Myself, if I were into Savage's (which I'm not) I would never have any dealings with them. Too many reputable shops & people out there.

 

[Dgd6mm]

I'm into Savage's, I like them alot. I do have some custom's, but I will not deal with Fred's fly by night bussiness ever again. I'm banned from Savage Shooters site for life, and have not lost a milisecond of sleep!!!! Not all, but most guys over there are squirrels, led by the head squirrel Mr. Furious. What an IDIOT!!!!

Taking full payment up front and not giving good customer service is a very bad sign. There is more to running a successfull business than doing good shop work. Makes me wonder what their financial controls are like and what they do with our deposits.

SSS did two stocks for me. Money up front? YUP. Long wait for my stocks? YUP. Good work? YUP. Customer service? Absolute joke. Won't use them again.

Would love to know the outcome of this issue. Any current update? My brother had to call his credit card company and they got his money back. No joke the person at the credit card company told him" i need no explanation your not alone."
Good luck

Good luck! They lied to me for over 6 months. I think they do there buddies work as it come in ahead of the work on "the List" . I got on the "List" for action work and every time I called I was further down the list. :-\ At about 6 months , the last time I called them I was further down the list than when I started. They told me they would call when my name was near the top, and gee they never did! 1 of 2 Savagegunsmiths I won't use again. Kevin Rahill does good work, and I plan to send a target action to Nat next spring.

Im interested to see how the op made out. I understand he is a new forum member and only has around 30 minutes on line most of it was probably used to write this post.

Fred is a good gunsmith. When his business first opened around 2000, I had him do a barrel and trigger job for me. As I recall, it was completed in a month or so, and the gun shot lights out. Apparently, his business has done a turn around in the past 12 years. It is a shame. He needs to hire several competent employees.

 

[DennisH]

He needs to hire several competent employees.

I am sure he would love to, if he could find one.

 

[jonbearman]

This is why I use Kevin Rayhill form stockade stocks.Kevin is a good guy and his turn around time is way better.

I found this interesting. Quoted from Sharp Shooter Supply Order Form

"In the event of disagreement or dispute, VERBAL communication must be made by customer to SSS prior to any further attempted resolution or complaints elsewhere. SSS shall do their up-most best to resolve the customers’ concern. If this requirement has not been met, there will be a $25
processing fee charged on all disputes. Once order/estimate has been agreed upon by both parties and payment has cleared, SSS will begin the process of including you into those that have received the best product/service that SSS can provide."

As if them having an "F" grade from the Better Business Bureau isn't reason enough to avoid this outfit. Anybody who does business with Sharp Shooters Supply deserves what they get. What a bunch of schmucks. Caveat Emptor.

i am ready to pile on with the bad press for SSS. i ordered a stock 5-28-12. my credit card was billed the full amount 5-29-12. the mailed invoice said to expect a wait of 10-12 weeks. i still have not seen what i paid for. i have emailed Lisa several times and am tired of her blowing sunshine up my butt. never again.
