My New Fusion 1911 and Experience

Right off the bat, that immediately didn't sit well with me. But now it's more of a principle thing. The price difference in the shipping is $35. Considering the cost of the gun, that's pretty insignificant. But the sheer principle of it really left a bad taste in my mouth. Don't charge someone the cost of shipping 2nd day air when you turn around and ship USPS in a flat rate box. The $35 extra that he made from that wasn't NEARLY worth the affect it had on my opinion of Fusion.

Thanks for the write up! As others have said, sorry to hear of your negative experience. I hope my experience with the Les Baer I ordered goes a whole lot smoother.

Don't take this the wrong way, but your Fusion looks similar to what my Kimber CDP used to:

I have had work done by many different gun smiths. The 2 week, 3 month, 6 month time estimates are almost always 1/2 what it ends up being, if not 1/3rd.

I have never ordered a custom made gun so, I have no say with that. Allto, customer service is customer service. Were you charged for the flat top machining? If so, I would at least send an email about it. Just my $0.02

On a bright side...that is a beautiful pistol you got there!

You mentioned the F word? Hail Caeser will be along shortly. His experience wasnt pleasant either.
