I think its a good idea Abe and ballsey! its not blowing your own trumpet, if hardy engineering did this earlier on they wouldnt be in buisness now because of the shitload of negative feedback they would have got! firms and companies do it all the time but its called TESTIMONIALS and its only the good stuff the other shit never makes it.

To true there Rob, I just think that the testimonials sent to the builder are better, who asks for feedback from clients on a public forum?
If you where that happy would you not off already told him?
But just my opinion, more the way it was worded.

Bet nothing negative gets this far

Go Tui man it takes a bit of guts to lay yourself wide open, and the negatives are a bloody good way to improve your performance. The positives are a deserved praise.
I know how how hardit is in your own bus to have satisfied customers, And there are many I like to send to my competitors, remember it is easy to build your bus on good quality existing customers who appreciate you and thier word of mouth is what it's all about

Get with the times man. Social dictates own your shit online or off. The fucking greenhorn shit going down with some big outfits when it comes to this is quite frankly embrassing.

Iv had some of Abes work from a back a way. Some a bit experimental and not all has gone to plan

but he stood behind his work and any glitches have been sorted without hesitation. I see a big fat 7mm in my future

I dont know him from a bar of soap but this is the type of feedback that gives a new customer a bit of confidence to deal with him.
Customers, staff and the Govt/IRD are three reasons you should not go into business for yourself, Manage those three and its a good life.

Abe has no ability to moderate what is posted here, good or bad, unlike other smiths cherry picking good testimonials for their websites and never hearing the negatives.

It's an Honest Feedback thread which personally I would love to see from all gunsmiths as there is a lot of shit work done.

I have had a custom built by abe in 6.5-300 wsm based on a kimber, abe supplied everything from brass to barrel and even custom made my dies for me and the rifle was returned ready to go all load development done and shoots under 1/2 moa with three different loads.
To put it mildly i love this rifle, nothing to do with the build was a problem at all alot of gunsmiths didnt want to do the project as the stock needed to be opened out around the barrel channel to take a #4 contour no problem for abe though.
At the moment abe is fluting and suppressing my new Ar15 and fluting the bolt on my other kimber needless to say his work is great with quick turn around and he is also great to deal with and doesnt mind how many questions you have haha.
He has also just finished doing load development on my mates wsm and found it was slightly out of spec which was why we couldnt get it to shoot consistently, seen as my mate had just got married and a bit short of cash abe fixed the problem for FREE so overall great work and great guy to deal with cheers abe.
