    I hope that wasn't directed at me,but it's just wrong to complain here and then sell it on another forum.

      you guys will never be able to sue him. His buisness is set up to be pretty foolproof for screwing people over. He doesnt post pictures (maybe im completely wrong here) of his work, he just describes it in text. He can also say the damage was done via shipping, not him. Therefore you dont really have anything you can charge him with.

        I had a local guy clearcoat it. It's not going to flake off or anything now, which had been my fear before. The guy did it for $20 and did it in a few hours, so I'm happy with it. It was baked by him and guaranteed to last. Unfortunately he doesn't do any graphic type powdercoating.

        As for the post on PBnation, it is working fine now. I put it together, spent a couple hours sanding everything off (getting powdercoating out of the internals), and retiming it. As you can see in the pics, teh pneumatics are clearly scratched. So I don't see how I could be ripping anyone off. It now has a clearcoat finish on it over that, so it does look halfway decent. I always offer a return if the customer isn't satisfied. And after hours of sanding the body and timing it, it works as good as before. It was just a hassle that I should not have had to go through with a powdercoating company that has a supposed good rep.

          I will repost the pbnation sale thread later with a disclaimer stating that it was clearcoated over, after SIN sent it to me. I understand the confusion, and noone but myself and a few people I play with knew i was getting it taken care of today. I mainly posted this here to help others from thinking they're getting a great deal on a nice powdercoating job and end up getting something that looks like it will fall apart after a 6 month wait.

                I cannot reccomend SIN from what I have seen on you and Army's gun but mine is sweet. I will use someone else in the future. I am thinking of seeing if Redrider can duplicate the paintjob for a powerfeed body. I must say I love the Job Eric did and I actually got OK service. I am sorry that the quality has gone down.

                  can one of the moderators make this a sticky? AO members need to be aware of these jerks. I hate seeing people getting screwed over.

                    A friend of mine had some powder coating done on his mag body by Sin Custom. He was not a happy camper when it returned. It was not what he wanted and looked horrible. He ended up covering the design with black tape (the body was powdercoated black with a design). He would have returned it but the wait was too long the last time he sent it for work and he wanted to have his mag to play with.
                    Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.
