Issue is they just put on EBR this weekend so I'm sure short staffed in the store. Same thing happens when RMAC is on for UA.

yes, got an email on the 10th.
i would have thought it would have shipped on the 10th or Friday the 11th.
there website isn't so great I'm going to call today as it still has not shipped.
i see that someone said they had some kind of event still no excuse imo.

I bought a “We The Plinkers” Daystate Huntsman Revere Regulated .25 package a few years ago, I got a phone call from them the next day saying the standard scope was out of stock, would I mind if they subbed a better one, so heck yeah! They gave me a nice Athlon Talus BTR 4-14x44 IR, about a $100 upgrade. The down side was that they ship that rifle in the included soft case, inside a hard box, and they never gave me ANY of the documentation (manuals). I assume that was an oversight?
Three weeks ago I put a deposit on a new Weihrauch HW30N Special Edition Walnut Air Rifle.22 RH with the fancy Italian oiled stock. I am a sucker for that wood, the same as my Huntsman…. After enquiring I was told that they offer an FGR “Fine Gun Room” upgrade for $150 that will guarantee that I get one of the very best looking ones out of the entire lot. That seems really steep, I had asked if for $20 extra they could look at three guns at random and give me the nicest one….. I am reluctant to pay an extra $150 for a $550 rifle, but OTH some stocks are just spectacular. Since they do offer the service, I am sure a handful of buyers would get the best ones and I would inevitably end up with a less desirable “leftover”.
“The stunning walnut stock of the HW30N SE is the result of a year-long collaboration between Minelli, Weihrauch, Gehmann, and Airguns of Arizona—a fusion of German, Italian, and American craftsmanship. Only select walnut is used for this special edition, with every piece meticulously hand-cut and sanded to achieve its distinctive shape, sharp cheekpiece edges, and soft-forend contours.”
Nowhere does the ad mention that I would essentially have to pay 25% more to be sure to get one of the best ones…. It is not random! Do any of you use this FGR upgrade and did you get a nicer gun because of it? I cannot even find a MENTION of this on their website! How do I know if the FGR is real? They could pocket my $150 and send me any rifle….. Comments?Thanks!

I was referring to an Airguns of Arizona $150 fee, not another shop. I just emailed them direct asking for details and a blank “FGR Contract” form or whatever it might be called, for me to look at. It just sounds really strange to me…..

I always feel very confident ordering from Airguns of Arizona. Very responsive by email, Phone call or service center. Needed help with an RTI and they were fantastic. Yes, shipping is a little high on their stuff, but it levels out with the customer service.
Three thumbs up for AGOA.

A few years ago I got a used pcp from AOA, the gun had problems, I call them the same day I got the pcp and I sent it back, AOA charge me a restocking fee. To this day I have not got anything from them, an may never buy from them again.

Yes AOA is top notch. I think I bought my first expensive airgun, an Airwolf MCT IIRC over 20 years ago from them. There have been several more over the years and from sales to service they have always been outstanding.
I would respectfully submit that when you buy used you are taking a chance. Most retailers don't take used guns back, look around at return policies. I don't know the details, of course, but that is not the typical scenerio for them. I would have called and openly and honestly discussed the situation, and tried to work it out, they have always been more than fair to me.

I have only had excellent service every time I’ve purchased from them. Had a daystate huntsman spring a leak after a couple of years and shipped it back and they did a full reseal under warranty. As an owner of a retail establishment I realize the importance of customer service and they obviously do also.
