Do not order items made or distributed by frankford arsenal

I had purchased a Frankford Arsenal hand held depriming tool some years back. The small collet was deformed and not usable. i complained and they send me the entire set of collet.

So I have no problem purchasing Frnakford Arsenal branded merchandise.
 
Who was the dealer here that brought in the M press, then sent them all back because they were junk? Hirsh maybe? Can't remember...
 
So you can order a press from the US then. I always though you could only order certain items, like dies shell holders ,etc
 
Late to the thread, but I might have tried Brownells.
I see they handle FA and are up to date on all the US regs.
I have had RCBS ship replacement die parts etc. direct to me from the US, within the last few months.
 
This guy may dispute that, and, when Hirsch got the first batch, they returned them all to FA. Not the only issues with them, although the one this guy fixed on the screws is a reasonably common complaint;

Yea, I was prepared to do that to mine.

Bottom line; I got rid of it, got a Rock Chucker, deprimed and sized over 400 brass yesterday, and loaded about 50. Zero regrets. Smooth, easy and repeatable. While I still wish the M Press had been up to snuff, I have now zero worries.
