Mini Magnum Posted February 27, 2016 Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) I just ordered two mounts from kinneys, they were marked as dispatched the same day I ordered them. Edited February 27, 2016 by Mini Magnum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwade545 Posted February 27, 2016 Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 I paid John Carr of Doncaster a visit earlier. His business precision engineering makes top end rifle actions. He also makes rails in steel, aluminium to what ever design you want. Top notch stuff. Can make anything you can think off, bolts, bolt shrouds, bolt fluting, rails, muzzle brakes, thread protectors to fit the barrel profile, while actions and bolt handles. Work shop is amazing, machined a rail for me while there as a souvenir( was picking up a rifle) as well as thread protector which is being coated and a 20 Moa rail for the rifle. Might be worth looking him up. Pm and I can pass on details. Just to say I have no connection with the business but as he supplies to the trade it makes sense that it will be cheaper through him and what you want. Hope that he can help if you need.

mick miller Posted February 27, 2016 Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 Wow, lots of replies. The Czech companies won't ship outside of the Czech Republic of Slovakia, I emailed several, only two replied, both said no. Warne 30mm mounts in medium are no use to me unless they're weaver mount. I don't want to use the 527 dovetail as it doesn't have enough forward reach for use with night vision, or it'll be on the limit. Kinneys I emailed initially and got replies, I ordered on Wednesday or Thursday evening and haven't heard back, no replies but as the order is still pending I guess he may be away for a few days (looks like a one man outfit). Did I miss anyone? Rwwade, yes please pm away. Not for this but there may be future requirements. Mini magnum, what day did you order please?

Perhaps the two Picatinny rails from Optics Trade on my rifles are mirages then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick miller Posted February 27, 2016 Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) Perhaps, or you managed to find a Czech company that would reply and ship. Something that after 5 attempts with various websites I gave up on. But hey, if I get stuck with kinneys I can give them a go, so thanks for the link. You hadn't actually mentioned that you'd been successful so I assumed just another posted link from a Google search result. My bad.

rjimmer Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 They are actually in Slovenija. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick miller Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 Okay, perhaps they have different rules? But thanks again, at least there is a backup. I'm still waiting for any reply, maybe Monday Mr. Kinney will return to the office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick miller Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 (edited) Hmm, I'm thinking that's the day I ordered mine. It was late in the UK though, after 9pm.I'll see what happens Monday. If I don't hear anything I'll have to cancel the order.

mick miller Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 Well, the order will automatically cancel tonight; still no word from the seller despite numerous attempts to contact them. Doesn't exactly fill you with confidence does it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini Magnum Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 (edited) I ordered mine around 1pm 3 days ago they were marked as dispatched an hour later with tracking number, just checked and its in the UK now showing out for delivery. Thats quick from the states.. Edited February 28, 2016 by Mini Magnum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick miller Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 (edited) If I get refunded can you order me a couple on Monday - maybe he doesn't like germans? Did you request express shipping? Edited February 28, 2016 by mick miller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick miller Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) Well, maybe the first theory was correct, long weekend, the payment was processed this morning. EDIT: I called him, and there is a genuine reason for the delay, which is understandable. Ours should be here this week.
