How is widners quality with c&r rifles?

NateIU10 · Mar 16, 2014

Condition is, typically, better than stated. I love them.

Never got a rifle from them, but I'm over the moon with my Weidners Tok and "left hand" CZ-82. Don't ask me why it was called a left hand model because I have no idea :shrug:

My Romanian Tok was better than described. I've always been pleased with delivery times.

It is the same as a left handed axe :innocent0

Have never had any problems with anything from Widener's - they are one of my "go to" places.

^^This, consistently.

Never heard anyone complain, nor have I ever had a complaint. I've purchased both handguns and rifles from them in the past.

Thanks for the input everyone. Grabbed a 91/30 with matching bayonet. I only got it because it has a matching bayonet. The other ones I have the bayonets don't match.

Wideners is awesome and always understate the condition of their guns. I've bought pistols and rifles from them and have always been more than satisfied.

Same here. Very nice folks; very pleasant to speak with. Not the fastest shipping the in industry but the items are almost always better than stated.

Better than SOG or Aim, not that they're bad.

They sent me one of the factory new Yugo M57 mags they are selling. It was in great shape, however the feed lips must have missed the last step in the machining process because they were completely wrong. It jammed constantly.

I had it for a few months before even degreasing it, so I was past their return policy time. So, I tried to shape them myself but just couldn't get it right. Maybe it was put into the machine wrong, it had too much material in some areas and not enough in others.

I emailed them, told them the problem, and that I had even done some work on the feed lips. I didn't even ask to return it, just told them they may want to check their other mags to see if any were the same way, to avoid returns.

They told me to send it back for a free replacement anyways.

Awesome in my book...

Wow that is a great recommendation considering what I have gotten from SOG.

I got a worn-out CZ 50 from them. The double action trigger would not work reliably, probably a worn out sear. I sent it back for a refund. I got a good Romanian Tok and a P64 from them.

Do they ship to us here? I went to their site and it says "No Sales of these items to California, D.C., New York, Cook County IL, Maryland or Massachusetts.
Orders Placed to these areas are subject to Cancellation Without Notice" on their C&R handgun page...

This is from the C&R page;

No Sales of these items to California, D.C., New York City, (Chicago)Cooke County IL, Massachusetts or D.C.
Orders Placed to these areas are subject to Cancellation Without Notice

They won't sell non C&R weapons to us.
