I would like to know if anyone has ever had problems when ordering or during the process of purchasing new firearms? The past couple of times that I have purchased firearms i have had a couple of problems. A few months ago, I had ordered a firearm, I was told that they were expecting the delivery of the firearms from manufacturer in some time. I understood that I would have to wait until they came in, I traded in a few firearms, picked up a shotgun and paid for the firearm that I was ordering. I was told I would receive a call when my firearm came in. Well when they finally came in it was a month later than the date they had told me (which i can sort of handle), but when they did come in they never called me to come and pick up my order, I had called to see if they were in by chance. I was a bit upset, seeing how it was paid for and was late coming in and I didn't receive the phone call.
Now I have done the same thing again, I have purchased one of the Norinco CQ's (paid for), and now I am having sort of the same problems. When i went in to pay off the rest for the CQ (i had it on lay-a-way) they told me the transfer and paper work was done, just had to wait for the ATT. Well I call the CFO this afternoon (exactly a week after I was in last to pay it off) and was told that my ATT was issued the next day, and that I do have a permit issued to me. When I called Epp's to verify so I didn't make the drive up for nothing, they told me they had nothing there, then was told they would call me back in a half hour. I waited for the phone call and no one called back, so I had called them, then whomever answered got really rude. "Didn't you call this morning" really rude like and then told me that the CFO has "apparently" issued a few ATT's and Epp's hasn't received them. Then the person just told me they would have to request a re-issue, and that they would call me (yeah right) when the new one comes in and then they hung up.
It sort of reminds me of one of my relatives, all nice and polite up till the time you feed them, and once the belly is full complete 180, turn's into a real d&#k. So i guess once they have your money, screw you. The sad thing is that i have bought all my firearms from Ellwood Epp's, I usually only deal with one person there, and always talk to that same person when i purchase my firearms. Their prices are the best around in Ontario, but they should realize, that now there are allot of firearm dealers in Canada (especially in BC) that can beat their prices, with firearms being shipped right to your door and without the rudness.
