My problem is everything seems to be back ordered. Tried to pick up some mags, they said they were in stock, Back ordered. Called and spoke to Customer Rep (who was worthless) and she basically said "It could be 2 weeks or 2 months"
Went ahead and ordered from Brownells, a dollar more but I got it 8 days later

Had similar problem with ordering a mag from them. Ordered the mag and then tacked on another small $10 item so could get both in same shipment. Then all of a sudden, the mag that was in stock no longer was. But couldn't cancel the whole order, just the mag. So instead I got the $10 item plus $6.95 shipping. $16.95 for something I could've picked up locally for $10 plus tax. :banghead:

I haven't ordered from them again.

I have no personal experience with them. However, the reason I haven't bought from them is the number of complaints I have read in the past.

If what you need can be found anywhere else, I would not recommend dealing with Impact Guns.

Most of the complaints seem to deal with holding folks' money without shipping product.

OK. thanks everyone for the feedback. They have really good prices for the Colt LE6920/6940. I guess I'll have to find someplace else to get it from.
There is a gun-show coming up in Dallas soon (i think this weekend?) I'll go there and see if i can find something for a decent price.

by the way, anyone knows how much the bullttrap takes for FFL transaction or knows a cheap reliable FFL in the N. Dallas area?

I really don't think their prices are good at all. They are out of a lot of their products, and with all the complaints I doubt I would give them any of my money.

I've been quite pleased with my purchases from http://www.budsguns.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. BTW, I have no fiduciary interest in Buds. That said, my next new gun (?) will probably come from them.
