akwatercraft 0 Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 i ordered a ace folding stock for my saiga 7.62 x 39 on 11/24. the next day my card was charged and the order was processed. after 2 weeks i sent a email to find out where it was ( no tracking info provided) and was told it would be at least 5 - 6 weeks out,,,,, sooo does any one out there have a ace stock and are they worth the top dollar, wait till you get if your lucky treatment or should i cancel and get one of the considerably cheaper and more available options. i don't mind paying for good quality or waiting if the product is worth it. any body out there got one and are you happy with it?

yakdung 2,926 Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Sorry but you are being used by the merchant as he is using your dollars as leverage. I do not tolerate this type of BS from vendors. Just my 2 cents. Good luck, Yakdung Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jaywalker 1 Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 I'm a strong fan of the ACE. I have ordered one and some parts on various occasions. I'm sad to say that I got the run-around also. They would not answer their phone or emails for almost two weeks. When I finally did get ahold of them I was told that they were going through changes with either ownership or management or some blah blah blah... They did assure me that it would not happen again. Unfortunately there aren't many alternatives when it comes to their folding hinge assembly. It is rock solid, simple and reliable. I don't know if I would ever chose to do business with them again, though. I think a vendor should at least shoot you an email or a phone call if what you want is not going to be at your door in a reasonable amount of time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rssfndly 14 Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 I placed a stock ordered at ACE about 1 week ago. I called ACE today for a couple more items and no one answered and there voice mail was full. I called an hour later and they said they had just pulled the Ace orders and were going to start shipping Friday. If you placed an internet order your card was probably billed automatically. They need to wait until it ships thats is BS. I think that ACE has great products but it is a bit expensive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
righttoown 0 Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 I have an ace 8.5 with the 1 inch pad on my Saiga 12 and I really like it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigcraig 0 Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 I am waiting for the the AR buttstock adapter from ACE, I got the same reply as you, 5-6weeks delivery. Once I have the adapter I will more than likely get rid of the folding stock all together and just run a Magpul CTR. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KySoldier 2 Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 Ace does make high quality stocks. I know they were bought by Double Star in Winchester KY. Seeing how they are extremely busy this may be the reason for the delay and poor communication. My friends and I have dealt with both companies over the years and have been very happy. We last saw Double Star at a nearby gunshow, they had a well stocked booth full of ARs, parts, mags, and ammo in limited calibers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Since combining with a rifle manufacturer they've been slowed by the post Obama craze. Good thing for Double Star though who, as you can imagine, can and do offer ACE products on their guns at a good price. But I don't wanna promote a non-forum sponsoring business Quote Link to post Share on other sites
