Is Xtreme Precision a trusted retailer?
 
I just found a gun which i've been looking for on Xtreme Precision's new website. What I wanted to know is whether or not they are a trusted retailer. There not on the Canadian retailer drop down list, and I thought I heard something about them getting raided a while back????

Anyone have any info?

Haven't heard anything since the raid, but I can vouch that they are a great retailer.

If you have any doubts though, I suggest you just order in from ASCA.

It depends what you mean by 'trusted'. Peter Kang still owes me a working 12 volt battery, a charger for said battery and a 2500-round bag of .20 bb's from a PSG-1 that I purchased a LONG time ago.

their website hadn't been updated in months
they don't have any more guns but they are selling accessories
contact wess for more info

Really? they don't carry guns anymore? It's a real shame to tell you the truth, i have had nothing but experiences from both Peter and Wess. Also their prices were second to none.

I'm sorry to say that I will never order anything from that company/person again.

I will order with no worries from ASCA and other retailers on our list. Anytime I ever ordered anything from Tru, it got to my door faster than the Canada Post tracking system could tell me.

I can relate. I have NOTHING against Wes who currently runs it (as far as I understand), but it's the company and the owner that I won't trust.

I paid $1200 at the time for an upgraded PSG-1 which had claims it would fire 460fps, fine for our field. That $1200 included a 12V battery, charger, bag of ammunition and a lo-cap. Fine, good, I paid the cash.

I received a very very well worn PSG-1 which was broken (cracked gearbox, many teeth were stripped of the gears) and no battery, no charger, a lo-cap and no ammo.

I called and no-one would pick up. I emailed multiple times, then received a nasty letter from Peter saying he was doing me a FAVOR by selling the gun for someone else. I don't CARE if you are selling it on behalf of someone else, it is YOUR responsibility, ESPECIALLY when it is the store that I had purchased it through. At long last, he sent me a 12v battery, which was used, and did not work as the four of the cells were dead, and it would not accept a charge. I emailed back and that was the end of it.

It was then that he stopped replying to my emails. I eventually paid $250 to AugMan to replace the broken parts and paid another $95 for a local hobby-shop to custom-build another battery for me, then dumped another bill on a charger.

No... no I'm not happy about the situation at all, and it's quite apparent that I still hold Peter and APEC/Xtreme Precision/www.air-soft.com in very high regards.

Shouldn't that say "I don't hold"? Not to nitpick or anything.

I think he means that Peter Kang is first on his shit list.

vatek November 21st, 2006 22:05

Ahh...I see it now. Clever.

I'm guessing you didn't get a chance to do some cow tipping?

Aquamarine November 22nd, 2006 00:35

No, the fuckers were still awake and we didn't want to wait around till they fell asleep. Cow chasing is just as good.
