Seriously? That's not their problem that's where your shop is. We wouldn't want you to inconvenience yourself....

Incredible....

The whole point is, if I didn’t post this thread over the weekend, there would have never been your “coming to Jesus” moment. You are a pathetic scammer, a liar. It caught up to you, Ryan. So don’t try to play the whole, “I’m sorry crap.” Nobody buys it.

I’m not playing anything. You haven’t contacted me in months which is beside the point. It should have been done a long time ago. But here we are and I’m making it as “right” as I can with you and everyone else. Yes you are right. I’ve had a couple “oh [bleep]” moments. Before I was stuck between a rock and a hard place. Now I’m able to do something about it. I’m not asking for your forgiveness or anyone else. I’m asking for you to let me fix my mistakes and let it be is all.

A whole hour away? I'm beginning to see why you had CS problems - you, obviously, still do not (see why).

I see the point you guys are making. You guys don’t know the whole situation. There’s more to it then that. Job,kids,family it all adds up. I will ship the remaining parts when I get the the shop. I don’t know what else to say.

Say nothing. Let your actions speak for you.

Fixt. Thankful I am not one of your customers. Have been reading these threads for quite some time however. Have met others with your mindset; quick to apologize while always qualifying the apology with a 'but'. Your process of 'making it right' lacks any sincerity as it is only under threat of penalty. The shop's an hour away is an excuse that it should take weeks, months (years), to put some fugkhing parts in a box and mail them? Your issues go way beyond a lack of business sense.

On the brighter side (for me anyway) you make normal gunsmith wait times seem like buying off the shelf. I reflect on these threads and makes me realize the value of having stand up go to guys...and sticking with those that can be trusted.

Weak sauce.

We all are busy as hell and it is very obvious that you could care less that you've screwed people....

You're just a petty thief....

He has played the (pitty me card )on another forum a while back aswell when he got called out by people being cheated by him.Those guys over at LRH.com are done with his stealing and cheating aswell. I call total BS, that he goes to his shop maybe twice a month and that it is an hr away. Guys, he has always apologized and says he will make it good. But facts are. He is still cheating and steeling from people that I’m aware for the last 5 years. It’s always the same thing with Ryan. He never has owned up to his behavier until called out on open forum. And then the lies and cheating continue.

I’m thinking he probably doesn’t even have a wife or kids. If he does. What a great example he is.

Everyone does make mistakes and nobody is perfect. I know you are trying to make up for the situations but I agree with others. You say you want to make it right. Then take 2 hrs out of your day even if that has to be at night after the kids are put to bed and drive to the shop. Grab the parts and put them in a USPS flat rate box and print up a label and insure it. Drop it to the post office the next day.

Agreed. I think Ryan should realize that he stands to lose his job and maybe his wife and kids if criminal charges are filed and a guilty verdict rendered. I'd damn sure be going 2 hours out of my way to make it right and be glad I was only out 2 hours and not 5 to 10 years. Somebody needs to wake up and wake up fast.

Where's the tar and feathers boys, this bird is really getting what he deserves. He's plumb wore out the "I'm busy excuse", not too busy to take people's money and make worthless promises but too busy to return it.

Exactly...like 2 years ago...

Yes sir. I’ve had exactly 4 builds done during this drama by other highly respected MEN. All were done exactly as promised, with ZERO drama. Several different gunsmiths. The longest took almost exactly a year. Which is precisely what that smith promised when he took the job. No excuses! No dodging calls, emails, or text. The MEN delivered on their promises.

I've been down this excuse road with another smith, out of state. Any recommendations gunsmiths in Texas who are both doing excellent work and honest. My builds will be within driving distance from now on! Thanks to any legitimate and personal experiences you could share. Thanks

747, where in Texas are you located? I may be able to recommend a couple depending on your location.

Wow, I would drive 2 hours right now, in my underware, just to try to get these guys off my back and to Tyr to get past all this.

This guy is who I would recommend:

Tx80 I'm about halfway between Houston and San Antonio,but would drive several hours one way to the right Smith. Wheeler is a long way but would still consider if no one real good is closer. Have a friend in Wheeler area could combine trip with a quail hunt. Thanks for responding. 747

Devnull Ive heard only positive remarks about Mr. Bryant. Thanks
