    DDLES Buyers Beware

    I am not interested in slander, I want to share information that I found concerning.

    I feel obligated to share this info I literally just found out. DoubleDiamondLawEnforcementSupply is being sued and will be out of business soon. They are filling new orders only, at 100% production. Older orders are not going to be filled as that money will not be profit to them. The equipment they use to machine with is not theirs and is in the process of being confiscated. This means that if you have or get a new receiver, have any type of warranty issue, your SOL. who's to say the rush to machine new receivers are 100% QC..... I was looking to purchase one myself, I think I'm going to pass on these now. I was also informed the threads on AR15.com that reflect orders being filled quickly are staged by the "owner Jon" who has no less than 6 user names. I know there is a ton of stuff about DDLES out there, I work hard for my money and am sure each and every one of you do also.



    reference: Quarter circle 10.

      Because they are in a legal dispute, I will not share any specific info. This is the reason I put the reference at the bottom. I just don't want any people to lose money.

        i dont get how all these companies go out of business, they have the ability to pretty much print money with their popular products.

          DDLES had a very good thing going. Like you I'm baffled. I don't like to see any business go under, especially under this administration and economic times. I really hope they pull through. I just don't think you can change peoples morals though.

            I swear, some engineers are just not cut out to be business people. They need to get the right people to handle the business side of things while they stick to developing products. DDLEs make a unique product, they sold so much they were having a hard time fulfilling orders. I have a feeling they are getting in legal trouble because of it unlike LaRue and other companies DDLEs charges your credit card at the time the order is placed not when it is shipped.

              if this is a contributing factor, it is proof that cutting corners and or working to keep over head to a minimum under any conditions, will cost you in the long haul.

                Hate to see anyone go but eagerly awaiting someone else to start making the same glock lowers at half the price. They were way overpriced.

                    They're spending the money coming in on $h1t...welcome to the downfall of many small businesses.

                    That said, if you're dumb enough to work with companies that do not bill the card until the order ships, you get what you deserve.
