This is my first buy from buds and i will be doing business with them again. Buds has been spectacular with there help with a very touchy situation with the manufacturer. The manufaturer CHIAPPA has got to be the worst company and with the worst product i have ever received. The pistol i ordered was defective right out of the box, the weapon couldn't be cleared and would jam, i never fired this at all, it misfired while trying to clear it. They wanted me to return it to them at my expense (Buds did not agree and they paid the shipping) The CHIAPPA company had this for a month and returned it in the same packing material, same newspapers that i used and it was still broken, seemingly untouched. Buds has taken this piece of crap back and i have since ordered a different pistol. BUDS ***** (Great company) CHIAPPA (i can't rate them low enough)
