Has anyone dealt with FUGATE firearms?
Is there anything good or bad you can tell me. Thanks

There was a fuss here some time ago about him buying guns from the classifides here and turning them over. Some didnt like it. That dont bother me. I have read some postings of his elsewhere and I think he sounds okay and fair to me. I have never dealt with him but we have exchanged a couple posts.
I belive the problem was jealousy based as it seems he jumped into dealing with high end guns in a big way and made a fast success. Sounds like there are several brothers and its a family operation. I have read no negatives on him. He posts on another site and it sounds like he knows his stuff.
 
I've known John and Matt for years and they are both gun pros and good guys. I've found their word to be true, their business practices ethical and their knowledge accurate. ibtl ;)
 
I've never heard anything bad on them either.

I will say though, sometimes their pricing makes me scratch my head. It's a free country, just because it's overpriced does not mean there's not somebody out there willing to pay for it rather than shop hard. To each his own.

You sure are right about that.

Take a look at David Carrolls prices...there is MORE proof that some people have more money than brains.

Fugate has top notch stuff. High priced but all there.

I bought a gun from them a couple years ago. The gun was as described, fairly priced for what it was (excellent), the transaction went quickly and shipping was prompt. A thoroughly satisfying experience.
 
Never dealt with him, but his web site is a joy to look ( make that drool) at occasionally... I have seen some of his on-line purchases, and he pays top money, so, I guess he feels like his selling prices are justified.
. Lots of knowledge in firearms, especially Colts I believe.

Same here, bought a gun at a reasonable price on auction that was every bit as grand and unblemished as they said it was. I'd call it NIB condition.
 
I've bought numerous guns from David Carroll, I suspect I should see my lobotomist.

You missed the sometimes. :D

I'm thinking of specific instances, like an F comp they've had for sell for at least 6 months for $1700 and some other ones. I've seen a some on their site I seriously thought about buying myself, not all of their prices are out of line.

Besides like I said, who am I to tell someone else what they should pay for something?

As for your lobotomist, give me his number, if the country keeps sliding backward on the 2nd Amendment etc, I may need him to keep even my basic mental facilities from imploding from frustration. :D
 
I have sold guns to and bought from the Fugate brothers, see them at Tulsa . Both are polite and nice to speak with and do business with.
 
As the old worn out saying goes "You get what you pay for". Mr. Fugate and Mr. Carroll sell top notch quality firearms that are correctly described. No surprises.
