I was cleaning out some old magazine piles and stumbled upon this
"Guns N Stuff" ad from April of '03...

"Priced so low, Its almost free."

Too bad I was focused on muscle cars at the time. I got the same mailers from FAC. :neutral:
I just threw out a Guns and stuff flier from that era.. almost made me sic seeing what I should have bought... :mad:
I've learned the hard way; we are living in the "good old days".

Buy it when you find because it probably will not be there later. :wink:
I'm finding out that the Ak-47 I just bought is a kit built gun, made in the USA-receiver says made in Houston TX, Elk River and am wondering is it a good gun or is there anything I should know about kit built AK's.

I loved FAC! They had all kinds of AK parts back in the mid-90s.
I had several disappointments from the FAC catalog. I was just barely finding a dealer to carry Arsenal rifles, and wouldn't you know it? Of course everything I wanted in the FAC catalog was sold out already.

That was one of the things that got me to start surfing the internet at work.
FAC missed a lot of my orders, guns were nonexistant or never showed up, just cause its in the catalog doesnt mean they had it, they owed a LOT of money to other businesses like RapidFire and others and never paid their debts.
If anybody DID get their rifle, they are lucky at any price from them.

It was the customer service ladies that were just terrible, they made you feel at fault for calling them almost. Talk about a turn off.
I only orderd a few things from FAC, and I always recieved what was expected. I used to enjoy thier monthly gun porn too.

You guys will love this next blast from the past :lol:

This was before I knew better, and before I came to the forum. Luckily everything went smooth, and I got a great deal on the twins :smile:

+1. I bought a bunch of Coonan FAL uppers from them. I never had a problem. I did have a problem with one of the uppers, but they took it back no problem. Dan Coonan OTOH... :evil:

The receiver is fine. There's no telling who actually built the rifle but there are no problems with the receivers that I'm aware of...
