Re: Anyone have any recent experiences with NFC?

DenhamBruce, Thank you for your insight in this matter. It’s greatly appreciated! If you’d like to private message me, I’ll give you my name and you can call NFC and see if I’m Pro Staff, an employee, whatever “shill” want to believe I am. I’ve spent $14,266.88 with NFC since October 10, 2021. Surpr...

Re: Anyone have any recent experiences with NFC?

No affiliation what so ever. Just my hard earned dollars spent with NFC that could go to anyone producing what NFC does. I’m sponsored by me 8-) Why would I need to be affiliated with NFC to call somebody for publically bashing a company for not going above and beyond their stated warranty practice?...

Re: Anyone have any recent experiences with NFC?

Ok, clearly you aren’t used to how NFC rolls. Lol what a joke - nobody cares about your 89 perfectly received blanks, that's how things should go - we want to know what happens when things go wrong, and obviously NFC has a long and rich history of screwing their customers on that front. Lol, what a...

You just don’t get it, bud. It’s time to move on.

Re: Anyone have any recent experiences with NFC?

Kindly ask all you want. I’m not changing my stance. Folks like yourself are 100% the reason I will never build rods as a business. I was trying to be as polite as possible, here. NFC is 100% not the right choice for you.

Re: Anyone have any recent experiences with NFC?

Ok, clearly you aren’t used to how NFC rolls. I understand you are frustrated, I would be, too. As an individual who wraps rods, there isn’t a chance in hell I find cracks of the magnitude you portrayed, after I finished wrapping the rod. Literally 0% chance. If you gave NFC that same exact story, t...

Re: Anyone have any recent experiences with NFC?

Hindsight is 20/20 on everything. I would have went about things differently. I know you are frustrated, but your mildly condescending opening lines automatically would put anyone on-guard. Given that shipping cost, which has been that way for quite some time now, this may not have been an ideal ris...

Re: Anyone have any recent experiences with NFC?

I don’t plan to reach out to them in the least. I don’t need to. They are a company whose customer service ISN’T “the customer is always right.” I’ve pointed that out in this thread earlier, and elsewhere on the forum. I know they put out some flubs, everyone does. Here’s what I’ve noticed when it c...

Re: Anyone have any recent experiences with NFC?

That is a horrible experience. I guess it has been "buyer beware" with NFC for sometime and for those who purchase in hopes of a good experience, should expect to be dissapointed. This is a good example as to why "American Made" has gone down the drain. This coming from an American. It's embarrasin...

Awesome! Let me know how it turns out? I was considering trying that myself.

Re: Anyone have any recent experiences with NFC?

Can confirm the C6O2 blanks are slightly ridged like the non Black Mirror polished X-ray blanks (seems less ridged than the Delta blanks I’ve seen, but I don’t have any to compare directly). All of the C6O2 blanks I have in my possession have slightly crooked tips (four 1143, two 993, two 933, one 7...

Re: Anyone have any recent experiences with NFC?

My understanding is things aren’t made to order, per se. I understand it that they run more of a LEAN program. They may have some stock at times, but buying anything at sale time, I’d expect to wait. Regardless of what the order confirmation page says at the bottom. I treat it like a suppressor, for...

Re: Anyone have any recent experiences with NFC?

I have 57 NFC salmon and steelhead blanks (IM, HM, C6O2) I have purchased, all on sale, to build myself going back to October 2021. I have their carbon fiber grips purchased for most of them. I have bought ~$1500 worth of Fuji Torzite guides through them. I have had zero bad experiences. Yes, someti...

Re: To Spiral Or Not to Spiral... what is your preference?

That specific guide seems pretty high to me, too.

I don’t believe I could live with the aesthetics of that, unless there is some sort of unrealized, unworldly casting performance difference.
