Suffolk Rifle Company have dealings with LDT (LuxDefTech) if you need an alternative company to deal with.

When I'm ready to get a FAL I'll certiainly give these guys a look - but without knowing the specifics of whatever bad dealings anyone has had none of us can form an opinion based on fact, all we can do is "caveat emptor" and purchase on a credit card for additional protection....
Anyone care to share anything specific and factual (that can't be considered libellous) ?

Well, his turn of phrase in e-mails is interesting to say the least.......
You remember that scene in "Full Metal Jacket" ? The one where the Drill Sgt screamed "WHAT IS YOUR MALFUNCTION" at the recruit ?
Well, he actually used that phrase in an e-mail to me. I kid you not. Now, I have no idea of how good his Gunshop is but my first impressions of him in terms of character were not great.

I quite often ask my kids what their major malfunction is. Good film that.

Does not have a shop works from home as far as I can gather, you can't go and collect your new purchase has to be RFD transfered.
