Finally read the FAQs

Finally read the FAQs (3/11)

  1. Just searched. Looks like we did respond to you. 33 times to be exact.
  2. Email us at service@acguns.com Sorry we missed your phone call.
  3. Sorry that is the impression you got, but it is NOT what really transpired. I have screen caps, 12 pages, of communication while we have the gun. There is also a screen cap telling you exactly what the issue is and that it will take longer than I first quoted since the issue has changed. We received your payment on the 7th, it was shipped out on the 7th. There is communication on the 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th, 23rd, 25th, 27th, 30th, 3rd, 7th (shipped out on 7th). Consider there are a couple of weekends in between. Again, I appreciate your opinion, but not your facts.
  4. Hi Max! Come on down and man the machine for me. A whole pile of work is waiting for you.
  5. It started as a warranty issue, "my comp is loose". Figured re-loctite and job is done. Quoted 5 days including shipping. Upon inspection, found serious dremmel work on bottom of the comp that caused it to crack, the job changed from re-loctite to fitting a new comp, machine to match, file work, finishing work, test fire and so on. We received the gun on July 18th, shipping back out on August 8th. I got screen caps :) I also counted 16 "is it done yet?" messages on personal FB account and a few more on company account. If you are going to blow us out on a public forum, please have the facts straight and not omit details.
  6. True, we gave him one of the guns meant for a team guy. The team guy just doesn't know about it
  7. Marc, You ordered a 9mm Open gun in September, then you changed your mind and wanted one of the guns in the safe. We sent you the gun in the safe, but you were not happy with it. We took it back and agreed to build you a different one. You then changed your order to one of our top of the line Tungsten sleeved open guns in 38SC. I sent you a picture of the finished gun and asked you for some time to tune and test it. This is a race gun, it needs testing and tuning. It has only been a week and it was a holiday. Again, we will not ship out the gun until we are happy with it. We pushed you to the front of the line, it is now the fourth month on a super custom gun, please be patient. Blowing up my phone does not help. Shay
  8. I agree, some rules are very silly, such as weight limits and restrictions on holsters. Just look at IPSC Classic division.
  9. It is legal because there is no rule against it:) We followed the rules, but used every advantage possible, which is within the rules.
  10. Thanks for the feedback, they seem to do ok in matches As a matter of fact, one of those guns you describe just won North Carolina overall
  11. If you are getting a gun from Brandon, please listen to what Brandon recommends. I am sure him and his team have done very extensive testing with what powders work best for them. SV has some of the world's top shooters shooting their guns, just listen to them.
  12. Neomet, except Max does run holes... The only top level shooter I know that doesn't run any is Eddie Garcia. I Am curious if he will start running them now that he is on his own.
  13. Just to add... SV has a very similar philosophy and it works.
  14. The gun has a certain balance point. If all the down pressure is applied at the very end of the gun, then you have "dolphin " effect. Two schools of thought: 1. Run comp only, fast burning powders, no holes - basically a limited gun with a bit of compensation. 2. Run comp as a muzzle brake, use holes to vent gasses as force vectors to control movement of the gun - slow burning powders, more control over the movement of the gun, down pressure is applied closer to the middle line of the gun. Yes, both schools work, neither is wrong, but they are different. For us, more important than how flat the gun is or how soft it shoots is how consistent it is shot to shot. In other words, if you do a super fast split, a "double tap", at 25 yards, how close are the hits? For us, the only true measurement of an open gun is the number of "snake eyes" you get on a stage. We found that we get better results by separating the function of the compensation system. The comp is, basically, a muzzle brake. Its function is to control recoil. The holes in the barrel are designed to control the return of the gun to the same spot. Slow burning powders, more gas, give us more control. The way our system is designed, we don't lose that much velocity. Slower powders also allow for lower peak pressures and a more drawn out pressure curve, instead of a spike. I will now return to my corner...
