Talked to some guys in a FB group and it looked like they at least got 3 complete rifles.

The price isn't to bad. Never heard of them until now. Looks like there doing u-fixums. Post some pictures when they arrive.

Will do... I've been looking for a project gun and I figured for $100 more I can get 3 shipped to my ffl instead of one from SOG.

I would pay with check or Post Office money order. I have heard more than once that they sometimes do funny business with the credit cards.

I jumped on the U-Fix-Ums from Century last year & was very pleased. The part where Buds says the stock may even be missing is kinda alarming though. No way would I be happy if I received a sewer-pipe barreled T53 Action for $75. :shock:

The part that said they "may or may not have stocks" was a bit concerning... :vconfused: The whole thing sounds a little risky to me. You could end up with zero, one, two or three parts guns and still have the possibility of not having one fully functioning rifle. What's wrong with buying one nice one? Good luck though and let the group know the outcome. :thumbsup:

Got them today.... Had about 3 mins to look at them before work. I won't have time to really go through them until this weekend. They seem to be complete minus cleaning rods. The stocks are not cracked or missing! The bores looked good on two of them the other was packed with cosmoline. I think they will clean up nicely! I will have pictures up this weekend. I am pleased so far!
