akpartskits.com Reliable?

Is http://akpartskits.com a reliable parts vendor? They have something I want for my AK variant, but I've never used them before.

NO!

i have ordered from them a few times without problems.

[NSR500]

Hmmmm.....

One "No" and one "Yes".

I don't mind gambling my $50, but I do mind them having my CC information if they're not decent people.

They might be a little better with AK parts, but Hesse/Blackthorne/Vulcan/akpartskits have horrible customer service

I bought stuff from them. heard lots of had things about them but Shipped on time arrived on time. guy answered every question i had so i had no problems but The packing material sucked azz.

Well... What I need is for an AK, so it doesn't matter much if the parts are ugly.

Ive never been overcharged OR had weird charges after using a CC to order something from them. Not saying they are a great company but i didnt have any problems with my order

They are the same company as Blackthorne Products. I've ordered both AR & AK parts from them. Items arrived in good time, and their aftersale customer service was good.
Sent an item in for warranty repair (I damaged it, not fault of part quality), and received it back repaired as good as new, with 2 or 3 days turn-around (excluding UPS transit).

The only thing which I wouldn't order from them again, is the AK buttstock for $20, it's too plasticky, but the rest of their gear is fine in finish & function.

i ordered an ak kit years ago and a 16" a3 kit for my sons 22 build and i have no regrets. the parts are not the best finish but everything works great and accurate, in fact the fcg is better than my rra and dpms groups.

Thanks Guys!

You get what you pay for, as they say. But never had any bad experience with them either.

For me it is GTG.

LOL sorry but that's the most awkward endorsement I've ever read
