barney 66 Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Hi,has anybody else had trouble with nvscopes.com? up to now i have only heard good rumours about Clive,that was until i ordered an 8 shot mag for my Anschutz .17hmr. Before i ordered it i tried to phone them to find some info on stock and delivery and was told i would receive a call off Clive,it never happened so i went ahead anyway and ordered online on the 23/3/11,over 2 weeks ago,i payed via paypal and up to today still havent received it or any replies to my calls or email,must be about 9 calls by now and keep being told they will pass the info on and he will call. Am i asking to much for a quick call or email to say if or when it will be dispatched? i know this isn't much of a sale compared to night vision but surely it deserves a reply,you never know i might want night vision in the future. If i am out of order putting this on here i appologise but without an explanation or anything for my money i am a bit dissappointed to say the least. Thanks for looking, Chris.

snowz Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 I don't know him personally but spoke to him many times on emails and he is one of the good ones but he is known for lack of communication and slow replies but always comes through. I know how you feel tho as if I pay for something I want I asap Hope he gets it to you soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before i moan anymore does anybody know a good reason that hes not contacting me? ie ill or on hols,also does anybody know where else i can get a larger mag for this rifle?

Devon Fox Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 What are the t&c's on delivery? Most are 7/28 days, so you might have to wait a couple more weeks before anything can be done. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akroyd Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 Thanks Chris. I am in the same situation, having also ordered an .17 magazine on the same day as you. I have not had any joy over the phone - just a phone answering service. They have given me Clive's mobile number, but no answer. I don't mind waiting, but it would be good to know what is going on. Will keep waiting. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barney 66 Posted April 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 i think it will be worth the wait as its a pain in the butt with only a 4 shot mag when your on your own carrying rabbits and trying ot reload Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akroyd Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 After my posting earlier today, my 8-shot Anschutz magazine duly arrived in the mail! Obviously did the trick... Looks good, proper metal job. Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks good, proper metal job. Stephen Yeah mine did to,but its going back after i have spoke to Clive,if i ever get to speak to him, Have you tried loading yours? the bullets wont stay in mine,the pressure of the spring loaded mechanism keeps pushing them out,looks like the lips on the top aren't folded over enough,let me know what yours is like please,or has anybody else had this trouble.

Akroyd Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Oh no...now away from home for a week, and did not try it before I left. Let us know how you get on. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Couldn't be bothered to send it back so i took the bottom off it and tweaked it myself,it now loads 8 rounds and cycles them fine,ill let you know when i do my first outing at night,this was just loading them in and cycling them in the garden, Thanks Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CZ550Kevlar Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Clive has always been slow but reliable if that makes any sense, you always get the stuff but i think there is more to his company that meets the eye which is why he always seems so busy. I think he has other fingers in other pies, lucky for me he is only 20 minutes down the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before I take mine to bits...how did you adjust yours..? Thanks. Steve Edited April 26, 2011 by Akroyd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
