I hear and certainly understand your concern Anthony. I can only give you my personal experience as a long time Buds customer Anthony. As a 5 year customer and 3 Rifles, 8 Pistols and 2 Shotguns later, I have not experienced a single issue. I am certainly not discounting the negative reviews as I know things do happen. I would give Buds a chance and judge them on "Your" experience as every negative review, there are a hundred positive reviews posted.
I have had 17 transactions (I counted) with Buds since June 2011 and I have not had any issues. Sometimes I wish their shipping was a little faster (waiting for the gun so I can play) I have a gun on layaway right now. it seems that on the internet people who have problems quickly post but that most people who have no issues don't bother to post ( I am guilty of that myself) Give them a chance and on the slim chance that you have a issue inform them of the issue and give them a chance to correct it. I made a mistake on a order I wanted to put it on layaway but did it as a regular order contacted Buds and they were great to change it to a layaway with no issues We are not buds employees we are volunteers that answer questions
