    Was your shipment insured? If so claim it. Otherwise, I'd send them back, request you money back. If they don't comply the blacklist them for bad service.

    I just wish I had a dollar for every gun I wanted, then I'd be a rich man.

    Lee is right on. Dont let it go. Hit them where it hurts, better
    bussiness bureau or here. If they admit to bad packing, thats in
    your favor.

    he did say that he ships several dozen guns a week and never had a complaint . funny i get two bad shipments in a row . i forgot to mention in the first post that the guns were nra new/exc. condition and bought on gunbroker auction .i have already picked them up at the ffl and had passed the nic's check , so i'm hesitant to return them and have to go through it all over again .i guess its best to warn other gunbroker users to be wary of alantic firearms . wrench .

    I bought two guns from them last summer, both arrived in "new" condition. Haven't dealt with them since then.

    I used to live about a mile from their shop in Silver Spring, MD.

    Everytime I went in, they acted snooty and were rude. Don't care how cheap they sell em. I won't buy from them.

    My gun is prettier than yours, and it's a Glock!

    niklasal , that is the impression i get from them also . they seem holyer then thou . all there correspondance seemed snooty .i will not buy from them anymore .any seller should of offered to replace guns that were scratched up . i'm wondering if they were scratched up during shipping or at there shop . i did get them under there average selling price . maybe they sent the bottom of the barrel for that reason . still new in box should not come in damaged in box ! new is not scratched up . wrench .
