I had made an online order at cabelas a few days ago and called to see if it was confirmed but the dumb employee who answered the phone told me they never received the order so I made a new one... well they obviously processed both orders since I now own two brand new mossberg 500's, im trying to figure out which one to return.


What kind of details should I be looking for? the only difference I notice is that one has a looser pump arm and a stifer safety switch.
 
So you decided to go with the Mossberg 500 eh? I would suggest that you keep the one that is tighter. As long as it isn't too tight and feels sticky. It will eventually loosen up. It pretty much comes down to what you feel most comfortable with. Have fun.

ya after making a dozen "1 vs. other" threads I decided to get a new 500 just because it came with a second barrel.


I think I might have screwed things up, doesn't cabelas take down the serial # for registration? I forgot which gun came from what order... would it matter if I returned a gun in the wrong box and order number?

Take em both out and see which one functions better? I guess that would be frowned upon... but hey, it's their screwup.
:D damn straight, i gota take advantage of this situation

I wouldn't give you a refund on the sole principle that you would shoot them both out of spite alone, even if you don't.

That's plain f**king dishonest... playing on someone elses honest mistake. I take it you don't make any mistakes?

Because of such comments, I'm concerned making sales/purchases/trades with you in the exchange here to the point I don't want to deal with you in the first place.

EDIT: This is the exact s**t I've had to deal with from people out of Quebec as of recent as well, now that I notice you're from PQ. Hence my opening statement about PQ newbies at the beginning of my sale ads:

No sales to Quebec newbies.:kickInTheNuts:Too many bad experiences.

It is because of members like you, the whole lot of you is affected. We don't need your kind around here. I hope everyone here gets the message to stop dealing with these re-treads.

Easy,

I was 100% with you on your original post...up to " in the first place", but I think that you totally derailed when you found out that the OP was from Quebec. From what started as a honest/dishonest point of view post, ended as "hate you and all the others from your province".

Funny though that you haven't said anything bad about "darko"...is it because he is from Ontario???;)

Respectfully,

OK

Not sure why you would make ignorant comments like this when you know its going so start sh!t, especially when you have been here long enough to know there are many French/English Quebec members here.

Myself, I could care less, and just ignore it, but it does reflect some of your own bad traits, and judgements.

Then again, one only has to look at how many posts you have for the length of time you have been here to see you are not here to pass along any useful knowledge or enjoy the community, but rather only to profit from the EE. That being the case, maybe you should think before posting something that is surely going to get ugly.

I've contributed more than my share of intelligence to these forums over the years and I probably buy more items than I sell. Open your eyes and look around. I've been here since the days of RabbleBabble which was the reason why this forum was formed. As far as my track record here in dealing with members, my feedback speaks for itself.

Not that I have to explain my trader rating count to anyone, but you should all be happy that some of us are highly involved in the firearms industry and use these forums to EVERYONES benefit. Your reference to the amount of my posts and trader rating count is out of line here.

What of intelligence exactly have you contributed to these forums aside from spueing your cries of racism. Is that all you have as a defence for your kind. Even the Colored man has abandoned that retorical, but it's not the first time I've heard that line from a Frenchman.

I've NEVER had ANY issues what so ever from any other part of this Country in regards to honesty and honor, or Stateside for that matter than as from members from Quebec. I am pissed at being ripped off, lied to, wool pulled over my eyes, having my time wasted with useless questions and excuses when your money doesn't arrive after you've said "I'll take it". I've been very kind and accomodating as many here will attest to that.
I've sent items in the mail before getting paid as I do to many across Canada, but to Quebec only to have to ask for payment after the fact and then have the item returned instead. What's that all about. Pictures and lengthy explanations aren't enough for you? Not to mention the cost of postage when the item is returned without just cause. This is not McDonalds.

I'm not saying all Quebecois are the same. God knows I've had great dealings here with many of you. You all know who you are and I'm happy to continue trading with you. It's the handful few that give all potentially descent new members a bad name from the get go. As my rude statement suggest, it only seems to be the many NEWCOMERS of recent time to be so ignorant.

As a matter of fact I have word that the Arme a Feu forums don't even care for some of you. Is that why you're now here, to piss on the rest of the Country and CanadianGunNutz?

There doesn't seem to be any honor in many Frenchman's word as far as I'm concerned.

As far as "darko" is concerned, I have quoted his post also, right alond side with Beer_drinker. I don't condone darko's encouragements, though he's not the culprit here. You should have seen this in my post if you were paying attention, but it's typical of some of your kind not to as it appears.

I have spent 15 years of my life in Montreal, I'm completely bilingual and I know much more about Quebec than you imagine. Apparently not much has changed politically between then and now. In fact it's getting worse as I see it. Maybe your government has good reason to delay your firearms approvals and why the Surete enact laws on a whim as they go along. Maybe you should all sink into the St. Lawrence and be done with your separatist garbage. Then at least our Beautiful East Coast would be so much closer to the rest of us.

Until then, if this is the attitude you're going to show here, stay on your side of the tracks and we'll get along just fine.

Habanaday.
