So say a Canadian dealer is on AR15. com? I message, Then cry when I don't get a response and company thus sucks. Because its a 3rd party website. So CT get the deal ? only because you called them and never called or emailed HICAL so that company sucks?

CT last company that would get my money.
 
I'm just stepping in to point out that going to Canadian Tire and buying some plastic-fantastic stock for your SKS does NOT constitute a "build". You didn't build sh!t

Yeah there's a difference between baking a cake and decorating one.

This thread also has a tinge of entitlement and a splash of holier than thou to it...

One thing nobody tells you. These rifles were sighted in by the factory with the bayonet extended. indeed all Mosins, SVT and SKS were sighted in by the Soviet army with bayonet on.

What does that matter? The sights are adjustable.

So you buy a rifle and just shoot it because the factory sighted it in?
 
Note to Canadian Tire: contact me also. I want to buy something for an SKS.
If this works i'll be doing all my purchases this way.

So lets see they offered to sell you a ATI or Tapco Stock, Tapco or promag mag, NCstar tri rail scope mount and a cheap scope to go with it? And lasers?

Considering they sell Tapco stock with mags as one of the guns on the rack. Hardly gave you a build.

At this point since I haven't received a PM from hical they can consider me a lost customer. Curiously I asked the same thing of Canadian Tire and they called back with several build options and were happy to help me.

Retailers need to work to gain loyal customers and hical really failed IMHO. I'm sure all the twits that joined in derailing this topic just for their own fun didn't help - but that's ultimately still hical's problem. Listen to people trolling a topic or actually help sell something and gain a customer.

On the car and other enthusiast sites I'm on this would have never gone this way. Site sponsors would have PMd me right away - happy to sell me something knowing I'd come back for more and tell all my friends.

Oh well. Mix a bunch of passive aggressive Canadians and their neutered access to guns along with the Internet and this is what you get.

So I guess ultimately it's Canadian Tire who gets my business. A learning lesson for all those smaller retailers that you have to do more than just post "I have what you need" in a forum to win a customer.

Funny, I actually went on the High Cal site used the contact us tab and sent in a question. Got an email back at 10:30pm the same night. Didn't have what I wanted in stock but had some coming in. They said they will contact me when it comes in. I will be driving over to give High Cal my money very soon. Canadian Tire wont even call me back for a rain check ticket. You can keep CT, I will support our local businesses.
 
They would have had my money if they would have PMd me. Pretty easy way to make cash - just send someone a PM who wants to give you money.

Why not just go to Cantire, pick what you want and be done with it in one trip?

You thumbed your nose at Hical's knowledge and experience and wouldn't even send them a PM; but then you're OK driving to Cantire and trusting a part time department store clerk to "put something together" for you in an SKS package. Odd.

Your quite unlikeable black_valkyrie.
Most people reading this picked up on that after about 3 of your replies
If i saw someone like this spouting off about his "FAT STACKS OF CASH" and general immatureness , Its quite likely id let him take his fat stacks somewhere else also.

As for apologizing for the rest of us radmacks , save your apologies for people who deserve it.
This guy has also repeatedly slammed canadians in this post , Acting like a entitled American troll the entire time.
Would not be surprised in the least to find out hes american moved to canada.

Unsubbing from this worthless topic also.
 
Black Valkyrie has been an instigator and a troll since he got here. I look forward to seeing his name in pink soon.
