I bought a part for my Ruger Vaquero from snapshots, they delivered but I have no experience sending them a gun.
I was pretty surprised to learn Ruger only has a 1 year warranty.
Probably has something to do with COVID.....but all kidding aside, it's good to get positive and negative feedback.
Thanks

I wasn’t privileged to the whole discussion, so I won’t assume anything, but please don’t confuse “directing a customer to the warranty centre “ as “dismissive “
I work retail. We have an agreement with another business to address warranty issues.
When I direct customers to call them, I’m not dismissing the complaint.
I’m doing what I’m supposed to be doing
Good luck getting the magazine replaced/repaired
Fair comment, but I figure when the item is defective from the store, the store should make it right. If I bought something from Walmart and it had a problem right out of the box, I'd simply take it back and get a new one or my money back. This isn't a problem that developed after weeks or months.
Yea I’ve had some less than stellar service from them but in the end they made it right. I had a faulty trigger, took it back within the return period, they said contact the company which is in the states. I said they can it’s their problem, so they ended up sending it out to the company which returned it with a clearly used refurbished model with damage. So I’m not sure who’s fault that would be but nevertheless I don’t think it’s their responsibility however any good merchant would and should want to make things right.
I bought a Beretta 92 inox from them about 2 years ago. When it arrived it had some corrosion on the rail. I contacted Al’s and was basically told to go through warranty. If I had of bought in store, I just wouldn’t have taken that particular gun, but because it’s an online order, I have to do the work and pay for shipping which negates the few bucks saved online. Lesson learned, I haven’t bought a larger purchase online since and I haven’t bought from Al’s again either.

I used ruger warranty through snapshots for my Stove piping PC9, it took almost 5 months to repair my rifle that I had owned for 3 months before it started acting up. There was zero communication about my repair, but eventually I got a working rifle back, that looked like it had a thousand rounds fired through it. No more stove piping though lol
