SiNs and me.........

Army ask yourself this. Do I wait another 60 - 90 days to get my Mag back and risk the chance that's it is still not right. If Eric didn't work on your Mag the first time what guarantee do you have he'll be the guy doing the work this time? You don't have anything but his word and look where that got you the first time. Shartley's right, shame on you if you try it again. At least get your money back from Eric and then move on.

I'll at least give Eric credit for trying to make things right by you but this situation doesn't speak well for his company. Creditability is a tough thing, when you lose it like he has it takes a long time to get it back.

What a great company.... The website doesn't even work! (Might be temporarily down though)

I wonder if eric came on AO and saw your last post??? I know i have seen him here before.

If i were you, i think i would ask him for your money back, and then go with someone else. But if you do go back to him, make sure you get it insured so if he never returns is, your covered. Although i imagin that if you do send it back he will not screw it up this time, but it is your call bro...good luck.

Send it back in, why leave your gun looking crappy when it can look good?

ENDO!

Hey Army,

Have you heard of a guy named "Dalum" from PBC/PBD??? He did excellent powercoatings. I've seen a BL Millenium with 3 color faded splash Veeery niiice..

You should try to contact him, I'll help you out if you'd like. I'm sure that he could repair SiN's screw up.

just click on my profile and e-mail me if you'd like me to find him for ya.

Ouch Army,
Really sorry to hear about the poor job. As you know I was pretty happy with mine although it could have been better. He did prepare things as stated since the end of the barrel that was not painted had been sandblasted. I am sorry he did less than a decent job on yours. I must say between hearing this, the resent shipping fiascos, and the improperly fired body. I will stop reccomending Eric to others as well. If there is anything we can do to help let us know.

Hey Army,
Unfortunately since SIN has grown Eric has other people doing some of the work. This was on the new web site. The problem for you is as you first stated. If you send it back Eric will probably make sure it is done and done right. Unfortunately you are out of a gun for another 2 months. Maybe wait until winter. I still think it stinks that this happened. I was kind of afraid that this might be what happened when you explained the poor paint job. I think SIN better get thier act together or they are dead though.
Later,

SiNs and me.........

In a recent thread, a member asked where he could get his gun powdercoated.

I, in my frustration, posted he should go with RedRider as SiNs had been unprofessional in his dealings with me, and a few other comments that were simply mean.

AO members, this could not be further from the truth. Eric McBain, the owner/operator of SiNs Customs powdercoatings is an honorable businessman and one who strives to please his customers.

I am ashamed to have posted what I did.

Eric has kept in contact with me as much as he has been able, to keep me informed of the progress on my gun. The NY situation has bottled up the crossing of packages at the border, and I implied that he was the one slowing and/or screwing up the 3 shipments back and forth. This is not so, Canadian Customs is to blame for the fees required of the first mailing debacle, the two other shipments have transpired with no problems.

I can only blame my brief lack of good judgement on such a poor showing of understanding.

I do apologise to all AO members who I have led to believe that SiNs is not a good company.

Please, if you are considering having your gun powdercoated, consider Eric McBain at SiNs Customs.

it's all good...i got mad one day and wrote a not to nice letter to Bud Orr on how much of a pain in the *** Autocockers are to keep in good shape..and he called me back and had me send the gun into him personally to work on..(i then proceeded to trade for the gun in my signature and i'm a million times happier) but i hope that you've patched things up SiN and explained to him why you felt the way you did and that you're sorry for not keeping it between the two of you...

[MAGgot Man]

Well ARMY...for your lapse in judgment I think you should be flogged!!! I sentence you to 40 lashes with a wet noodle....

[cphilip]

Well...Army your first posts were indeed based upon an unproffessional job. No doubt about it. We all saw it. So at the time you said it it was true. Eric admits that. The shipping problems aside. However you gave him a chance to redeem himself and it seems he has. I do not think you owe anyone an apology. When you said it it was true. So its now changed and you are letting us know. End of story. And So its all solved but you do not need to feel guilty for telling the truth. Its the way you felt at the time and rightly so I might add. I think the both of you handled this thing very well in the end. I know Eric cannot undo the harm from the first job anymore than you can undo the words you used to describe it. You were indeed very restrained about it at first. So I say to the two of you...Fugedaboudit!!

[SuperOrangeTicTac]

lol i was wondering why you went off at eric like that. HE did an awesome job when he did my SE m98 a while back, and i had no problems with him.


MCBAIN IS THE BESTTTTTTTT

[slushee]

Yeah .. and everyone thinks us canadians are so nice

.. damn customs - least I won't have to deal with them when I get powdercoating..

[mrhooie]

It's big of you to post this Army.. I'm glad the two of you have made amends and everything is OK

You scared me for a minute though, I just sent off a marker to Eric to be painted..

I'll let you know how it turns out
