    GL Incompetence strikes again........

    Got an email this morning that was obviously a form response they just cut and paste your name and dates in to. They are still maintaining they attempted to charge my card a second time when I asked, despite me and my bank having 100% proof that they did not. I responded with that, and told...

    GL Incompetence strikes again........

    Well, 48 hours in, from when they said I would get a reply in 48 hours, and ZERO response from "management". Live chat now says it can take 72 hours... I kind of feel sorry for those poor folks they have doing the live chat, I am sure they take lots of abuse. I am always tempted to go off on...

    First deuce - help with bumper markings

    I know some made it back. When I got to AFG on 05 we fell in on the equipment from another USAR unit, who had brought along a 1968 M3A2 non turbo. It was never rebuild, never had the seatbelt MWO, and still was a sprag unit! Where the **** they had been hiding that thing I have no clue. That...

    Have up-armored humvees ever been sold to the public?

    If the 1986 ban was overturned and new full autos were once again allowed to be added to the registry, ALL full auto values would indeed drop. The fact that the supply is fixed by law increases the price for all full auto toys. The Thompson would not take as big a hit as somethink like a Sten...

    Does any one have knowledge or photographs of civilian based 80’s three wheelers?

    I think, maybe, I might still have an NOS fuel tank for one done in green CARC.

    GL Incompetence strikes again........

    Well, 24 hours after the acknowledged that "management" has my email, zero response from GL.

    Have up-armored humvees ever been sold to the public?

    Huh? Armored vehicle= perfectly legal, with thousands owned and no problems at all. Some in civilian hands even have perfectly legal functioning armament. The US demil restrictions have nothing to do with legality. Full auto= perfectly legal in the majority of states, with hundreds of...

    6.2 GMC Engine swap

    Why not use a 4L80E with a standalone transmission computer- the same setup in newer HMMWV's behind the 6.5's, both trubo and NA? In fact, you could almost just drop a complete M1114 drivetrain in...

    GL Incompetence strikes again........

    The only time I had an unathorized charge on my debit card I walked in the bank, had the charges reversed and the money back, and walked out in 5 minutes. Faster than on the phone with the CC companies. But as I said, this is a small hometown bank, might not get the same results with a big...

    GL Incompetence strikes again........

    Visa/MC debot cards these days have the exact same buyer protections as a Visa/MC credit card does. You can see that on the website. For online transactions like GL I use a debit card linked to an account that is only used for these specific type transactions, that I monitor and put just...

    GL Incompetence strikes again........

    Ohh trust me, after 17 year in the Army I know how to play the game. I can assure them if I have to pay a default fee I will cause enough trouble- all through legitmate legal ways- that the manpower they use responding will cost 10x what the default would be. Bogus defaults Charging for...

    GL Incompetence strikes again........

    Live chat was zero help. They kept saying they had tried to charge my account, but when I asked for the transaction # they couldn't provide it. They did confirm they got my email to "management" and that they had informed "management" of the issue, but were of zero help other than that. They...

    GL Incompetence strikes again........

    Won some lots last month, my card was initially declined (my fault, had an automatic draft come out that dropped the account a few dollars under), no big deal, contacted GL with the 5 days via live chat and asked them to rerun the card. They didn't. Well, they claim they did, but a trip to my...

    Select Vehicles on Hold GL WHAT?

    Good to hear more confirmation that this is the issue. Look for one of these possible solutions- A: They get DRMO to screen them for radioactivity before trabsferring to GL, only "hot" gauges get removed. B: DRMO screens, but DRMO employees being typical government employees they yank the...

    What does it go to?

    Sure about the FSN? I can't find anything on it.

    Select Vehicles on Hold GL WHAT?

    50's and 60's from what I understand, but I hve never seen any hard data.

    Select Vehicles on Hold GL WHAT?

    Only m35A2's date from the time period when such guages were installed from the factory- A3's don't, 800 and 900 series trucks don't.

    Tim at Ft. Jackson, SC

    The guys at Gordon are also pretty nice- but they get irritated when you schedule with Tim and he doesn't call them. But even though they were not told I was coming they loaded me right away and were lots of help.... but I am sure Tim got an earful after I left.
