I think I have had my worst customer service time over the last 16 days with CZ USA. I have filled out all the required paperwork for a return authorization to get a CZ shotgun repaired. 16 days later. No RMA still. Have called customer service four times., they tell me yes we see that you filed for an RMA and it has been assigned to a representative, when they get to it, they will get to it and there is nothing I can do to help you and then hang up the phone. Talk about sorry customer service.
 
Mine was with Leica. Rangefinder in binoculars quit working a few times. The eyepiece adjustments also slowly changed until they would run out of travel. My eyes didn’t change at all. Sent the binoculars to them several times for the same problems and towards the end they wanted to charge ME for the issues??!!
 
The only gun company I’ve dealt with that has had consistently good customer service is Ruger; which is a good thing because they turn out a lot of defective guns. Most of them are slow, at best. At worst, they blame their failure on user error. Accuracy “guarantees” come to mind specifically with regard to the latter point. I sent in a Kahr pistol years ago that simply wouldn’t feed properly and they sent it back to me in less than a week with rust on the gun (that DEFINITELY wasn’t there when I sent it in) and a note that said they adjusted the extractor, and the gun still jammed all the time. Recently actually had a great experience with Smith&Wesson as they replaced the cylinder on a revolver with quick turnaround and no charge. As with so many things in this world, your mileage may vary. Best of luck with your CZ.
 
dealing with the airline companies, when they lose your luggage, or at the gate 15 minutes before takeoff but door is closed, they SUCK
 
Not me personally but I trust 2 of the people 100%
So I believe there story.
Winchester
350 L ammo
They both bought box’s of the practice ammo 145gr o believe fmj.
Open the box and all the ammo in multiple boxes are loaded with soft points.
They will not shoot them if the bullets are wrong is the power?
Well they have called Winchester and sent emails.
No call back and.no response to the email.
Nothing at all and it’s been a year or nearly a year. They were bought for pre season practice last year.

So it’s not bad it’s non existent for customer service

This happened to my wife a few years ago. Door was closed only moments before she got to the gate. TSA had been a cluster. People were still finding their seats. Plane wasn’t going to take off for almost half an hour. They wouldn’t let her onboard. I had to pay for a new ticket on a different flight… NOT happy with that!

I have more problems with Winchester brand ammunition than all other brands combined. Ballistic silver tips without the tips. Razor boar ammo grouping 8 minute of angle. Ranger hp premium duty ammo with chunks missing from the brass itself. No resolution in any case.

American Airlines is the worst company I have ever encountered. Every year at Christmas my sister and mom ask me to bring a cooler of frozen deer meat for Christmas. I arrive three hours early understanding the halfwits and imbeciles employed by American Airlines operate at a pace resembling a union work stoppage. The last ever trip with them, they made me go through two extremely long lines trying to check the cooler and then sent me to a third line which caused me to miss the flight altogether. I check my EDC pistol far easier. And every flight was sold out after that. Thankfully American Express Travel got me on with another carrier the following day. I’ll fly Air Gabon before I’ll ever fly American Airlines again. They have the absolutely worst employees with the worst attitudes. Never again. I’ll drive before giving them a dollar.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
