That moment when you realize that a high point would have been a better option

I thought I wanted a Keltec KSG, that was until I finally got my hands on one. I'll pass, especially for the outrageous price people want for these "novelty" guns. Can't imagine any of their others guns being any better.

I purchased a brand new 9mm carbine (sub 2000) at AO last Thursday and took it to the range to shoot with my dad on Friday. I went through the first 10 round magazine without so much as a hiccup. I was using Winchester factory target ammo 115gr. I didn't get the opportunity to shoot the 2nd magazine because the bolt locked up when I released it to load the first round. Scary stuff - gratefully I was able to extract the LIVE round by breaking the barrel. Couldn't get it to work so I bagged it up. So much for quality time with Pops.
I called AO on Saturday to see what could be done and they told me since it was brand new, they could have their gunsmith fix it...WRONG!! When I got there I was told by the manager they would send it back to Keltec and get it fixed under factory warranty - 4-6 weeks. WTF?! I plead my case with the monotone robot manager of the day and he said "sorry, nothing I can do but send it back". I asked for some sort of compensation for inconvenience and he said "sorry, nothing I can do except give you free range time and free gun rental until your gun comes back" I can't shoot MY gun so what's the point unless they rent fully automatic (something to look into). I asked for a used magazine or 2 - again the robot reply "nothing I can do". He said they couldn't get the gunsmith to fix it because they would have to pay for it... BUT if you buy a used gun they will pay for the gunsmith to fix it. What a bunch of BS!! This is the 2nd and LAST firearm I buy from them. I have never been fed as much of a line of "sorry - nothing I can dos" in my life. I was hoping that the stories on ODT were few and far between but I got to witness it first hand.
I'm not saying not to buy from them - I'm saying "let the buyer beware" If you don't have any problems, they're great. If you do have problems... remember they all carry guns and being pi$$ed off does no good (nor does anything else for that matter).
I just wanted to speak my piece and let you folks know they're at it again.
You know, all it would have taken to make me happy and write an AWESOME review of them would have been for them to give me 1 or 2 S&W59 magazines for my inconvenience and time.
Just my 2 cents worth - Man I was looking forward to busting loose with that carbine!! Maybe I can... in 4 to 6 weeks - shoot I can almost have a litter of puppies in that time - LOL
Thanks for letting me speak my mind.

I think there is a very clear point here that has been overlooked. Unless you want your gun to constantly jam, NEVER buy a 9mm that does not accept Glock magazines,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, S&W

I am outraged that this thread didn't go as the OP expected. I need to be compensated for my time..how about 3 free HK45 magazines for my trouble?

Seriously when did everyone start expecting free stuff because something broke. If I can get it fixed for free I'm happy.

Hey, my car broke under warranty, so I fully expect a set of wheels and tires from a 911 GT3 for this.

The best thing about the new server? The OP cannot close his own thread.
