    Unanswered:

    Unpursuable:
    BBB is unable to locate the business.
    Been a loyal customer of the business for years, plenty & multiple orders no previous issues. Recent purchases have arrived damaged, in transit / careless packaging, description of multiple ( lot ) item in picture then send only 1, stating they are not responsible for their own site description for products they list per ***** Customer support but as we are speaking about the items they correct the posting but state we are not responsible for errors!?

    Multiple rifles & surplus item arrived damaged, not as described / non operational / missing parts- contacted Centerfire Systems to notify why transfer not completed /notify items arrived damaged or not as described.

    Now they have stated that I have complained about every purchase for years, not true & only the rifles damaged but expect you to still accept it or poorly packaged / shipped with free shipping items but was charged for shipping & the item damaged. I have never had an issue with this business great experience but now. ***** who stated they are not responsible for any errors in their listing & they will not honor. I have dealt with the manager ***** in recent transaction as it took 2 months to get a return label with multiple excuses on why they have yet to provide label. Excuses -they are behind, will get to you, email with return label attached with nothing attached more than a couple of times.
    Now I purchased a kit on web page, canceled my order stating we have decided to cancel your order due to pattern of frequent returns, we have decide to limit further transactions to manage the risks. This is a clear pattern of business expecting a customer to accept a product they clearly did not carefully pack -damaged in transit & expect you to accept it, or read and see a description but what you get is not what you paid for. As per the reply from the business this is clear retaliation of bringing to the attention of only expecting to get hat you paid for vs you got what you got accept it.
