Anyone got any insight on the closure? I’ve gotten a little bit of info but trying to find out more. They’ve got a rifle of mine and have been ghosting me on all communications.

Sorry to hear that they stiffed you, it sucks that this happens in the 2A community.

They were supposedly relocating to Parkland if I remember right (my memory isn't what it used to be). I stopped in there one day a little while back and the whole place was vacated. Tom said he was gonna open up after like 6 months or something at the new location? I dunno. I had no idea they were packing it up/moving/closing or whatever they did. I just happened to stop by and the place was empty.

When they have people's gun's, they need to respond to e-mails and calls. I hope you don't get screwed NotAMerc.

I don’t think I’ve been in there for a couple years now. Judging off the comments on the Facebook group, there are others in your same shoes.
I’ve done several dealings I’ve try years with Tom, Never had an issue. Hopefully things get cleaned up and out to bed appropriately here.

I heard form a source within the local FFL/Firearms industry that owner had a gambling problem and that's why the business went under. The last time I was in there, they did not have any guns on the wall or in the case but you could order something. I would take my chances at Cabelas.

Don't need to order, they had a rifle they were doing work on, then they stopped communicating. So where the rifle and extra receiver now are my question that I'd like to get answered.

There is a guy on Facebook that said he contacted Tom direct and got it taken care of. It’s on the company page

If it's the same guy I contacted, he provided a phone #. However, I have yet to hear anything from calling or texting that number. In fact, I just tried again, and it seems Tom removed his voicemail as well.

Yep, prob same one that I saw.
It’s been so long since I’ve been in that shop, I don’t even know anyone that was working there. Hopefully things get figured out here soon for ya.
Wonder if Adam ever heard back ?

Call ATF in Seattle and ask the question.
