Has anyone heard of or had experience of these guys situated in Eurodeal House, Brearly Street ?


Not keen on handing over big wonga without doing a check first. The website lists their guns for sale but without any method of payment. Not sure how that’s meant to work.

Birmingham is too far for me to travel so it would all have to be done remotely on trust. Are they pukka ?
 
I've only read good things about them. Does seem an odd set up. Some lovely stock as well 😀.

Do they import RTI or did I completely image that?
 
I bought my Dragon off them years ago.
Very helpful, no problem at all.
My experience is not recent but was 100%
 
I’ve had good experience with bob , yes they did import rti at one stage , I popped in and got spares of him
 
Bob is my local RFD and a great guy to know, and he is very knowledgeable. When I have purchased pistols from other RFD's he has been the RFD, the pistols have been sent to him, and he has done the exchange for me. I have purchased quite a few things from him over the years. His shop is in an industrial estate in Birmingham within the clean air zone. He has an amazing amount of stock. So yes, it is a legitimate business.

Been there, really nice guy and an interesting place to look round
 
problem is if you drive you enter the emission zone in brum

He moved there not long after/around the time I moved to my current place, which is a pisser. Where he was was about ten minutes from me. However, TBH, that driver ripoff tax (let's call it what it is, it's get naff all to do with clean air) was one factor that has previously kept me away from visiting. However, it was pointed out to me down the range by a guy who goes there that many (most?) vehicles are exempt, including mine. It's pretty old so i expected I'd be liable but putting my reg in the website showed me I'm exempt.

You can check here, assuming the link works


You need to be quick as you might get your motor nicked 😂

The other reason I'm not drawn to the place. Hockley is one of many areas of this shitehole city that's legit bandit country. 🤣 If you just lose your motor, you've had a result. 🤣
 
Not a great experience with him tbf went in for a brk ghost advertised at 1450 online looked at it said yes I’ll have it being cheeky ask if he could do a better price don’t ask you don’t get😝
He went off came back said I can do it for 1550 I told him there advertised on your sight at 1450 he didn’t know what to say I said can you do it at 1450 wouldn’t give me an answer was very awkward so I said I’ll leave it mate can you let me out please was standing by the door wouldn’t open it told me I’ll do it 1500 said just let me out please then was
blocking the the saying ok 1450 ,1450 I had to get a bit sharp with him just to get out of there needless to say won’t ever go back again made me feel very uncomfortable just my personal experience not trying to put people off

Did you ask him for his
"Best price?"

That annoys the crap out of me.
Seems to have originated on those excruciating TV "Antique "and "Bargain Hunt" type series.

I used to do the occasional Auto jumble with some of my old bike stuff and this was one of the factors i my giving up.
I doubled the asking price every time anyone asked for my "Best price" because that was much better - for me!

(No laughing emoji on my phone today for some reason. )

only asked because I know he was doing them at 1400 at the shooting show when I asked how much they were there a month earlier so thought he might stand to the the same again not a low baller mate read my post again offered the asking price straight awaybut if I know he was doing them at that price then I’m going to ask ain’t i
