RJ Hedley seriously mis-reports turn-around time!
« on: October 15, 2005, 11:09:41 AM »
He under-reported it to me!  ;D

When I asked Mr. Hedley what his turn-around time was running, he told me three weeks. Well, that's sure not what happened.  :)

I sent Mr. Hedley an order form for a RB-F/LE front-pocket holster, left-handed no less, with a check on Thursday, September 29th. I'm in NM and he's in Florida, so there's no way he got that order until the following Tuesday at earliest.

The holster was waiting for me when I got home yesterday, Friday the 14th. Given ship time, that means that I got a custom holster and a magazine pouch tailor-made for my gun in one week! :o That sure wasn't my experience with Milt Sparks!

The holster is just wonderful, of course, as is the mag pouch. They are of a quality that befits my gem of a R9s pocket pistol. The supplied strip of leather enabled me to get the holster to the perfect level of tension in a matter of minutes (brilliant system, that), and I just love how well this carry system works.

I'd put photos up, but I have to go have breakfast with our priest in a few minutes, so I just don't have time right now. Maybe tomorrow.

Anyway, folks, I'd like to give a big thumbs-up (unneeded around here, to be sure) for the quality of the products and the service provided by Mr. Hedley. What a great outfit - why can't all businesses be this terrific?

And Mr. Hedley, THANK YOU! for my gorgeous and perfect little holster and mag pouch. I very much appreciate the artisanship you bring to this field, and I'm honored to have one of your fine products complimenting my Rohrbaugh.

Good report, Erich.

RJ has pulled the same good service trick on me.

I am highly satisfied with my Hedley holster and magazine holder.

It is very nice to see glowing report like this, and tempting to just let it stand, but Erich got lucky.  The order he received was very fast, but this is not the norm.
 Just once in a while I get a holster ahead for a variety of reasons.

Thanks guys  :D

And thanks for the continuing patience of those that ordered before Erich   ;D

Not only does he make great Holsters, but if you are lucky enough to get him on the phone, he is a book of knowledge for any information about the gun industry..........A truly wonderful person to talk to..............Geminidan
