Wilson Ma when/if he has the time and he's located in Mississauga around Erin Mills/Eglinton. The caveat's there as he hasn't had the time to play in over a year now...

That's a little harsh.

I've left the gun doctor biz. I don't recall being approached to readress a GBB that I had worked on. Nor do I even know if I was PAID to work on it in the first place. I've done a lot of work on a lot of GBBs some as paid jobs and some as favours. There's also the issue of how long I'm liable for my work. Airsoft isn't exactly robust to begin with. I can't be expected to maintain something I've worked on ad infinitum.

I asked you said no, you did the upgrades for Viking......spark a light?
I still have PM's, so no, it's not harsh, just a statement of fact. I moved on, np. I was not then or now looking for a guarantee, I just want the gun to work, since it had approximately 10 mags through it before it ceased to function. I am looking to PAY for the work, not whine about it, this is not a flamefest, I am looking for someone to make it work....end of story.

I don't really recall Viking complaining that my work was poor. Perhaps it was a matter for him to follow up on himself. I'm fairly certain that I wouldn't outright dismiss a complaint about a recent repair job.

If you didn't want to start a flamefest, you shouldn't have opened with an accusation that I am an unconscionable repairman. If you're looking to get your GBB to work you're not going about it in a way which sparks confidence that be a fair customer.

I would have to agree with MadMax on the original post being accusatory...

I really don't care what you think Illusion. I asked Madmax if he would work on the gun, he said no, he does not do work on Phantom guns etc....whatever that meant. The quote I am looking for someone who knows what he is doing is to disuade kids who think they know how to fix. Nothing more, now back at the matter at hand. Madmax did the original upgrades for Viking, thats it. I did not say anywhere his work was substandard, SIMPLY he will NOT fix it. You can do your twisitng anyway you want to change my post, really I don't care if you do, as a matter of fact I find it pathetic, sadly humorous, but then again if the shoe fits. Really so mind your own business......as the post states I simply am looking for some to fix a WA1911.

Which model of gun is this? I've got a decent amount of experience with WA non-SCW but zero with SCW1/2.

I agree with MadMax and Illusion. The statment in the first post is very accusatory, it's first read and subsequent read meanings are very clear that X did work on gun, gun broke later and X decided no to fix broken parts.

It is obvious that MadMax took offence to a possible neg on his rep. The lest you could do is say sorry for the mis wording (if you did intend another meaning) and actually reword the post.

You are the one being ass, as evident by you second and third posts. Show some more respect for people that have been around a lot longer then you are are respected members of the comunity.

I assume you looked at post count to come up with your answer. If only you knew.
