Almost two months ago, I ordered a trigger kit and new bolts for the action of my CZ-452 Varmint from Mr Eric Brooks:

http://cz452.com/springkit.html

The payment was immediately confirmed by PayPal.  To date, I have received no confirmation of the order and no response to any of several email queries subsequently sent to the same email address listed on his web site.

Be advised -- I would not send this fellow a PayPal pre-paid order.  Maybe the trigger kit and bolts will one day show up, but it is sure a poor way to do business, Eric.

Wish I had heard it earlier.  Not a lot of money lost, but it is irritating.  I filed a complaint of fraud with PayPal and have posted negative comments on the several shooting forums I belong to.  Sigh.

The trigger parts arrived today -- just over one month after pre-payment by PayPal.  Never got a confirmation.  Never got a response to my email queries.  I did get the trigger parts, by mail, 5 days after posting very negative comments on this and 3 other shooting forums.

If you read Rimfire Central you should have known already. I ended up putting a Timney in my 452 Varmint (.17hmr) to avoid this problem. I hope it all works out for you.
