Fantastic service, as usual from https://fire-support.co.uk^_^

 

Bought two complete AEG sets. (guns/mags/batteries/ammo).

 

Went to their physical store in Cambridgeshire, good advice from their staff, they even threw in a balance charger for free.

Avoid!!!! For God sake AVOID.

 

I purchased a revolver from them when it arrived (box wrapped in brown paper not even in cardboard box) it was faulty. 


Faulty in my view because according to Frank from Firesupport wobbly barrel which on the 6” length has deviation of c.3mm measured at the muzzle is something perfectly normal.
They have instructed me to post it back at my cost but if they find it faulty they will refund the shipping cost. Of course they did not find it faulty. 

AsI have been told wobbly barrel is normal in Dan Wesson revolvers according to them! Therefore they refused to refund the return postage costs
So I lost £12 on return postage – used carrier they requested.


They are not a member of trade association, they don’t have any ADR scheme so... In your face...


Good that Citizen Advice has different view on this – so will wait and see how the issue will progress.

 

So unless you are happy to pay for returning faulty goods from your pocket – avoid as plague!!!!

 

As a interesting fact – recently I had to return goods to PatrolBase and it was all different story. 
They have arranged courier pickup, the courier had printed label with him, no hassle for me, no additional costs whatsoever, perfect and polite email communication refund issued same day they received the package.  
 

So well... The choice is yours...

That is a pity and a poor show on their part,this is where you find the worth of a trader when it goes wrong and they need to step up.

Have you enquired elsewhere about the wobbly design?

I can't say I've ever had a problem with them. I've always found Frank very helpful with enquires and they're my go-to retailer for checking UKARA numbers.

 

Shame to hear they've let you down on that one though Ajax. Have you had a second opinion from another retailer who also sells that particular revolver? Maybe they could confirm if a wobbley Barrel is indeed a normal "feature" for want of a better word.

Ive had no issues with Firesupport in regards to returns or anything either, ive even had some parts sent out for free, ok not major bits, but still, no charge

 

for me they are ideal as i can drive there....not the best road towards the shop, but still only 40mins from my house and they drop off at Urban if im playing instead of paying for delivery :)

I have been using this revolver already. I had several or them in my hand (one of the was c.2 years old) none of them had this issue with wobbly barrel. 

I had been returning goods to other retailers like PatrolBase, Gunfire, Taiwangun, AirsoftWorld and NONE of them charged me for return shipping if the goods were challenged to be faulty. 

 

To be honest I felt like Frank didn't give a sh...t about the issue. Their communication was let's say limited. for first email describing the issue I got reply "sorry you don't like it" and then copy & paste return shipping instruction.

There was no attempt to resolve the problem - they did not offer anything like - lets see if the other revolvers we have in stock have the same issue - maybe we got one that is solid and we will send it to you. 

 

He said "we can't refund more than you paid us".  oh yes you should if the goods are not satisfactory quality you as a seller are obliged by law to cover the return cost. This way or another you have heard my story - maybe they treated me this way for personal reasons, maybe they didn't like my surname, or maybe I was unlucky. this way or another I feel cheated be them. you may be lucky, you may never have to return any goods to them or maybe they will refund your return postage costs. the decision to buy from them is yours ;)

I bought a G&G upper receiver for a GR16 AEG a few years back, after FS ordered it in. 

 

Turned out to be the wrong part as the GR16 had been updated. 

 

They refused the return or a refund as it was 'especially ordered in for me'.

Purchased a TM Breacher last month from them. Order processing was slow and as there was a hiccup with my UKARA, it slowed it down even more. 

 

Finally received five days after placing the order. 

 

Strikes me as would be hard to buy from there if you do not have a UKARA number and have another VCRA defense.

Ordered two Prommy barrels. They consistently have the stock I need and once again received in double quick time.

I've not had a problem ordering from them, but not ordered a RIF.  One part was out of stock, they rang me to tell me before shipping the order, double checked to see if the part was in the wrong place and rang me again, so can't fault the service.

 

Cheers

Wont make a new thread as it was a while ago and put me off ever going back... Marshals didnt want to sort out issues (one was reported to one marshal he said he was going off to deal with it when in actual fact he walked round the back of a building and just sat down) cheating was rife when I played there and from reports and reviews on facebook it is still the same. Again even after saying to a marshal about inappropriate behavior in the "safe zone" didnt bother dealing with it instead just sat drinking tea. 

 

Like i say this was about a year ago and i vowed never to go back just because of how shit my day was even after numerous complaints to marshals which changed nothing.
