Maybe they stopped selling a model you like, or their quality control went down, or their prices went up. Just name the reason

What brands do you have a problem with?

Baikal.

One of my favorite manufacturers and they're banned from import simply because "Durty Cummies tryna' destroy 'murica."

Remington lost my trust after Freedom group got their dick beaters on them.

Savage is good but they need to sell their actions barreless.
>>
Sig Sauer because of their prices when their QC nosedived. The P229 is the best shooting handgun for me, but I'm not paying over $800 for a base 229R.

Glock because they still haven't resolved ejection issues, and cut corners to MIM after decades of perfect investment casting to save a couple cents per unit.

Beretta because lol product 2 years late, doesn't use legacy 92 magazines, and discontinued in 5 years.

Walther for any Airshit-tier pistols, and absolutely no marketing/support for their awesome pistols like the ppq and p99.

Op, awesome thread. I'm drunk yet I'm able to type well thanks to my phone's auto correct. Phuk yeah. By the tit fucking way, pic of yours is very related. I'm thawing an uncrustable now.

Sig can suck my average porn size penis. Worked for my autistic buddy; former buddy machining and assembling ar15's. Have to contact Sig for some dealer sample information. I won't go into detail just know their so useless.

I also hate noveske. If you think spending 3 grand on your ar is cool...go get fucked. They promote nothing but safe queen users.

Glock...you faggots. You put plastic thread protectors on. It's beyond cheese dick. Your third gens were your last good product line.

Keltec... you're fucking bolted two piece guns piss me off. My autism hurts.

DDI...you niggers. You straight up niggers. You get me alllll excited about the ddi 12. Don't mind it's from China...nope. get it in...ok, looks like dog. I'm cool. Fuck it, good woods gun. Test it...rear sight falls off on all three orderd. Use 3 inch slugs and the carrier jumps off the bolt lug. Wow...what a pile of shit. Call ddi. Tell them their shit is shit. They play the "ohhh, that's strange". Get money back.

Serbu is a fucking hack.

>>31717648
Holy shit, this. I have seen better machining on homeguns.

>>31716459
I can't bring myself to like anything by modern Colt. My M4 was one of the last Colts before they lost their DoD contract in 2010 or so and was an an irredeemable piece of shit, as was every other M4 our training regiment received.

Their commercial guns reek of average and are priced poorly, with the exception of when they need to balance the books and blow out $800 (or less) 1911s and 6920s. Don't worry though, fanbois will defend the $1300 they paid for that Colt 1991 in 38 Super.

Ruger because of my bad experience with the purchase of a .380 with the shittiest trigger in existence. NOT an individual manufacturing error, a known design flaw that they refused to acknowledge. They refused to replace or repair because, essentially, they admitted the trigger was designed that way and there was nothing to be fixed just because I "didn't like" the trigger.
The next year, they came out with the exact same model, with a new red skeletonized trigger specifically to highlight that they had changed over the old shitty trigger. I called again, they refused replacement or upgrade.
To this day, it bugs me the same as if I had bought a used gun with broken internals and realized the guy who sold it was perfectly fine with fucking me over on the deal. I'll never buy from Ruger again, nor encourage anyone else to do so. They should have offered a free trigger service.

They are one of the biggest pushers of panic buying, fearmongering bullshit that infects ammo and gun parts sale and makes shit more expensive than it should be.

>Kel-Tec
Their guns either work wonderfully, or not at all.
>Colt
They just need to die, their quality has dropped, manufacturers like FN, Aero, and Rainier Arms have taken their place for good quality mid-grade rifles for less money. Their M45A1/M1070 was a flop, they stopped producing rifles, they're way behind the game on everything.
>Tanfoglio
Amazing competition handguns for great prices, but their customer service is shitty, and production runs are typical of any Italian company. Short runs and long breaks. Older models had frame cracking.
>Remington, Marlin, Bushmaster, AAC
Freedom group tanked their quality, I've heard that Marlins are good quality again but I haven't seen it for myself.

A lot of their great budget guns have spiked in price.

Hesse/vulcan/blackthorneproducts for trying to fucking kill people
Keltec for not making enough rifles
And one special place in hell for you hmg mother fuckers. I've waited oh I've fucking waited 10 months so far on a fucking stg44 reproduction in 8mm kurz you fucking told me I'd have in june. You lie every single time I call you. Every time a new ship date. We are looking into November but probably December. But you know the worst part. I actually really fucking want this $1800 piece of homogenized shit. Ever since I watched Ian's fucking dick tease of a video for the preproduction samples. Fuck you fucking lying cunts

I got a post freedom 870 for my first gun. I'm not a fan of the new system of mag caps and the ejector rivet shit itself after 500 rounds of birdshot, so the barrel wouldn't stay tight. They did fix it without any issue, so I guess I'm kind of conflicted.

>>31716459
usa sig
i havent delt with them recently but my 226 was the worst pistol ive ever owned and by far the worse purchase ever made by me
i tried one of their 55x ripoffs and it was not even close to preban quality and they wanted a retarded price
i was really hoping when they setup shop that they would continue the german/swiss legacy since now that sig has about 5 employees but i guess not
Ddi because they are still waffenwerks fags
arsenal for their quality decline but price increases
freedom group companies for obvious reasons
and last but not least colt, i heard so much good shit growing up about you fags, what the fuck happened?
>>31717281
pretty much all of these
>>
>>31720640
Thats fucked up man. Remington is a household name and you expect a company known for THIS SHOTGUN to make THIS SHOTGUN as well as they can, because theyve been making it for decades.

As for my gripe, fuck colt. Make something new you cunts.
I can't bash FN for the SCAR though, its the best battle rifle ever made and they can charge a premium for it. Fuck their ARs though. I get that its DAT MILSPEC this is no shit what us milfags get to play with in the sandbox but come the fuck on, it's not a $1200 AR. It's not even an $800 AR.

And fuck hk for their premium proprietary super nice guns that I'm totally not a jelly poorfag.

Century.

>>31720572
How much prvi 8mm kurz did you buy?
>>
>>31720446
FN

Completely retarded pricing on anything they make except service pistols.

Constantly discontinue product lines only to make a new product that is very similar but uses different magazines and price jump.

OPERATOR marketing

Almost bought FNX but after FN49 and FNP were discontinued I waited only to see FNS with different magazines.
>>
>Colt
Besides the previously mentioned issues, they've been cucked by the UAW(union AUTO workers) for years, which would explain some of the high prices. Also I tried to get a job at the custom shop(gunsmith school student at the time), and they told me to pound sand at a UAW factory for 30 years to even have a chance. I found a nice used 3rd gen DS for cheap, and that's the only Colt I'll ever own.

I also refuse to buy any turkshit, due to lolkillingfreedom

>>31721209
600 rounds total now...

>>31719105
How many do they make per quarter? Are Scars really that popular? I didn't expect this, considering the AR platform is so prevalent in the US. I would pay a kidney for a Scar in Canada though.

Savage for getting rid of the iconic Indian Head logo and replacing it with one of the most generic "slanty type face" logos ever.

Well, if you are basing it on what you hear on /k/, at least one of the regular Keltec commentators works for them. He is a line worker, iirc.

I consider my Keltec to be a giant piece of shit and have argued with him a couple times.

If there is one company I hate, it is Sig Sauer.

I wanted a metal carry gun a year ago, and I really liked the p238 and P224. Didn't take much research to find that the P224 rarely came from the factory in a working condition. Everything that could have been wrong with that gun was. I was especially disappointed when i learned that the gun had been out for almost 4 years and it still hadn't been fixed. Didn't stop them from charging over $800 for it.

Then I started reading about the p238 and was again disappointed. I read that it's finicky, breaks slide stop springs easily, and I saw a video where inserting the magazine was denting the feed ramp. Didn't stop them from charging a premium price for the P238 though.

So around the same time that I was thoroughly disappointed by the product quality of Sig, they came out with the legion pistols. I realized that they were more concerned with gimmick marketing than selling decent products. Then this past year they released the P229 Carry, which only came in .40 and .357 sig, but they sold caliber conversion kits for 9mm for extra.

I'm really pissed at them. A p229/p226 has been on my list of guns to get since before I could own guns. But I ain't paying $900 for a gun that has the same chance of needing a trip back to the factory as a Taurus product. I'll wait until Ron Cohen dies.
