Charles, thank you for all your help regarding my gun - I sold it last week
for my asking price. It went to a nice home where the buyer has twin boys
and they had already purchased one 38-40 Winchester and wanted another - now
the boys each have one. Again, thanks so much for all your help!

I would like to say thank you for the link you gave me about finding some info. and sights for my post '64 Win. model 70. I have found some ! In reading the article it told me that the sights were made by Williams Sight Co. I called them and have some on the way. So no need for you to look for me any longer. This might even help you in the future.
I would like to tell you that it's nice to find someone that still believes in customer service, and went out of their way to help me even on an item they didn't have. I had got no help from anyone and even Winchester didn't try.
So thank you very much again!!!!!
Please pass this along to your supervisor and let him know he or she has a good employee working for them.
Thanks,

Hi Charles,
You shipped my pistol on Monday April 28th and I was able to pick it up Friday May 2nd. My bride and I took it to the range Sat the 3rd and it is A VERY SWEET SHOOTING PISTOL !!!!!!!!!! Do you have or could you get a couple extra clips for it?
We are VERY satisfied with the way you handle your business operation and we WILL be doing other transactions in the near future. Again WE THANK YOU for your honest portrayal of the condition and prompt and professional shipping. The guys at the range said we stole this one.

Received the 2 firing pit stop screws yesterday and they fit perfectly. Thanks again for all your help in figuring out this problem.
When you sent the schematic is what solved this problem.

Sirs,
I am so impressed! Right here in 2008, when customer service is often difficult to find, you guys make it look easy.
On Saturday, 3/1/08, I placed two online orders with your company. Both orders were for parts for a Winchester 1906, a pump action .22 rifle. I had to place two orders because I left some parts I needed out of the first order. Paid for both orders with a credit card. Later on the same day, I got e-mails from you stating that the orders had shipped.
This morning while working, I stopped by the house for lunch, and discovered to my amazement, that the parts had been delivered !! You had shipped both orders in the same package, which was the smart thing to do. And got them to me here in Alabama on Monday, 3/3/08.
Needless to say, I will recommend you highly to anyone. I look forward to doing business with you in the future. You have my permission to use any part or all of this note in any advertising you may choose to do.
Thanks again,
John , in AL

Got the gun today.
Thank you. It is a very interesting piece.
After doing some research it appears to be the type of musket that was later converted to the famous ZULU shotguns of the period.
Worth the money in parts. Thanks again and just a note to say that I am pleased with my purchase.

Charles,
I took the Remington to the range today and I must say I am not disappointed. As for my part I think I got the better of the deal. I shot the 180 gr. Nosler Power Points with 54 gr. of powder. A accurate and pleasant round to shoot.
Thanks

Hey Charles,
Well its been well over two months that I recieved the nagant and I can't believe i completely forgot to write you an email. I had thought i did but after never hearing anything back i decided to check to my outbox and I must never have sent one. So sorry, I dont want you to think I didn't appreciate the great deal you gave me. I got the rifle safe and sound, and I was amazed at it. I absolutely love it. Thank you so much for the incredible deal, i feel like i almost robbed you of a prize. Well I really just wanted to say thanks. Take care.

Hi !,
I purchased a Winchester 1890 from you not long ago and want you to know I love it! But my apatite for collecting Winchester 22's is growing. I am now looking for a Winchester 1873 in a 22 cal. I don't see any listed on your web sight but thought it wouldn't hurt to let you know I am looking in case you know of any for sale. Thank you again!

Dear Homestead:
I broke my forearm for my 1906 22 pump about 50 years ago and found you by internet.The part came like in 2 days. I was having a problem getting the magazine off to slide my new handle in place.
I email you back and you helped me very much with your email. I got the magazine off yesterday and the new forearm fit like a glove. Just to say Thank-you for your part and the service you gave me.
Most companies are out for the dollar $$ and to heck with the service. Customer #1142479241.7018.
Thank-you for your time and SERVICE. good job.

Subject: Re: Gun appraisal
Good morning:
We received your appraisal last night and forwarded the information to my father-in-law.
My wife's family was quite happy to find out a bit more about their history.
Apparently when my wife's grandfather left Denmark in the late 1890's to see the world - and jumped on a ship bound for Argentina - he kept a journal and wrote in it almost every day of his trip and the subsequent years on the farm in Argentina. Although it is in Danish and those in her family who can still read Danish are having a hard time with his writing, there is mention of him buying this gun.
The date of manufacture of the gun would correspond with the journal he kept.
Pretty neat stuff to learn....
