Hello,

You mention in another thread that Hogue has been very slow for the last couple years.

I ordered some grips from my local guy, and have been waiting almost 6 months. Just some run of the mill cowboy grips, nothing custom, ones they actually list. Is this possible that they are that behind? Do they service their online customers first before dealers/stores? I can't imagine anyone would pay them online now for grips to not get them for 6 months, certainly not me.

Should I be looking at other dealers as my dealer may not be "able" to supply?
 
Well that's rediculous. They are not gold. I will have to source something elsewhere, any advice as to where to get something where I will not be old and grey by the time I see them? How is Ruger for getting grips from?
 
Well, after many, many, many, many long months waiting, 3 of my 4 pairs showed up. I wonder if I will be 80 by the time the 4th pair shows.

I've only ordered once from them, but got everything within a week. They list cowboy grips in stock, not sure if they are the same ones.
 
Hogue's products are great quality but their customer service sucks balls. Lack of communication and very very slow. As a dealer you need to double your order so you don't run out of stock as fast because you'll be waiting a very long time once again.

Thanks. They don't have. They will special order, but they would be waiting just as long as me.
 
too bad

Sorry to hear that, I hate waiting on everything too, wish we had more options to shop for those kinds of things
 
I ordered directly from Hogue's website before - had fantastic customer service! I had to call them regarding something and they hooked it up big time, the girls there are fantastic

Hey Daniel,

That's sort of what I ended up doing. I couldn't believe it was taking so long so I called them to see what's what. They said there should be no problem and my dealer (Williams) should have them since THEY had them in stock. Low and behold, 3 out of the four sets showed up. Now the waiting game begins. I am doing a big Cowboy Course coming up and the teacher is going to try and bring some of his signature gunfighter grips for me if he gets them in time.

Anytime you want to come to a cowboy shoot just let me know, by pm or email (your buddy Alex I think is his name is welcome too).

Thanks Hank. I looked into that route too, but nothing what I was looking for. "That Boy Ain't Right".
 
Well, all my sets finally arrived. Needed a bunch of fitting on the New Vaqueros but they look great now. The Old Vaquero grips went on very easy to my recollection.
