View Thread: Arms of america first order


ptannjr
I saw that they are now selling saiga rifles now. I checked out the site. I placed an order on line for a .410 mag for my saiga, a AMD brake, and a couple of other misc items.

Immediatly i had the order confirmation and totals for shipping and all. I had put in my po box and they use fedex so i emailed them the physical addy. With in a few minutes i had an email back letting me know the order was changed to the correct addy. A few hours later i got an email with the Fedex tracking number.

Shipping was just over $10

I am looking forward to getting the stuff. It was a small order but who cares. I will let you know when it shows up. The do have a phone number to call if you need to talk to some one too.

They are not a vendor or sponsor here, but i just wanted another saiga mag and decided to give em a shot.

LOL, you like playing with fire huh?

LOL, you like playing with fire huh?No, everything i have been seeing about this company has been good so far. I bought and they did a hell of a job. Maybe you should give it a try? I have not seen ANY thing bad about this company. They are not Joeken and are not practicing Joeken buisiness policies. the mag i got was for the 2.5 inch .410. my Saiga would not take it. i called back and got mike on the phone and he sent me one out immediately and told me to just ship the other back when ever i get a chance. Good service.

It seems Andrew is an upstanding guy that Joe Cox has pretty much kicked in the nads. http://www.akfiles.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12528&highlight=joeken

yeah, you go ahead and keep believing that bullshit andy is spreading. he was involved up to his eyeballs in that joken scam.

ptannjr
man there are alot of haters. I posted i bought from the new company that Joe Cox in NOT apart of, and that i got good fast service. Then you have all these people that just dont want to admit a company has started by some one that LEFT a bad company, and has actually been doing buisiness different than the first company. Can not admit that people can learn how to create a company that does not practice the old bad policies.

Arms of America, treated me right. Fast shipping and took good care of me. Deal with it.

so he was involved too, eh? How has andy screwed you ? Sure it wasn't joe? Sounds to me like he has turned over a new leaf. Besides if you have first hand knowledge on how NOT to do business then if you start another one you can do better.

robdog
LMAO, Some people don't beleive sh*t stinks until they smell it themselves.

1st time in this forum although I have used quite a few others.
Hello!
I am about to begin my first build on a Polish underfolder kit that I bought from Arms of America.
I had read on another forum some poor business practices done by Joeken Firearms and knew to stay away from that name. I didn't realize that some of the employees of Joeken had migrated to AoA.
I have got to say that wile I only had one deal with AoA it was handled very professionally and Very quickly. I ordered my kit on a Tuesday Night and got it on Friday morning. I think that's fast enough for most of us.
If I remember correctly, the guy who helped me over the phone was a guy by the name of Mike?
I asked him to send me the best kit he had and what I got was extremely nice.
Has anyone had a bad dealing with the company now that it is AoA? or all of you who are slamming them simply comparing them to Joeken?
You might want to re-think that stance as suppliers are going to be fewer and farther between as time goes by dont you think?
They treated me excellent and I will buy from them again. If I get screwed by them, THEN I will form my own opinion based on my experiences with the present employees and not someone who used to work for them.
Give them a chance?

I placed an oreder with them using the internet after COB on Friday. It's now the second buisness day after and I eagerly await my parts. I have plenty of trust left in my heart.

The owner used to work for JoeKen. He left and started a new company. This is it. As far as i am concerned they are doing good business, no reason not to order.

i was going to order from JKF. sorry i didnt make that clear .what is the story with JKF?

ptannjr
JKF is bad JU JU. BUYER BEWARE, you may or may not ever get your product. If you dont get it good luck on a refund.

badmojoman
I guess WONT be ordering from jkf. then does anyone know a vender that has a good selection of ak pistol grips? the bakelite ones?

It seems American Arms is doing right even though ol' Joe is one of the occifers at that place. Perhaps they don't let him anywhere near the orders as he may start 'losing' them.

Max-Guy
My order arrived on the 4th business day after I submitted it, complete and well packaged. I am completely satisfied and would order again, with confidence.
