And no, I didn't edit it and make it improper English just to make them look bad.

Yes, you can. On my third order (and third "out of stock" email), I replied to the email and my order was promptly cancelled.

At least they were good on that part. :thumbs2:

Just emailed customer service to inquire of when I can expect a shipment. If I don't hear good news back, I'll be asking for a refund.

After reading this thread, i purchased three sets of night sights. 2 for glocks and 1 for xd. I am usin my time off this weekend to install them and noticed something unusual on one of my glock sets... the rear sight has a yellow lamp on the left and a green lamp on the right. I have heard of contrasting colors between front and rear sights, but never on the rear sight alone. There were also many scratches which looks like these were used and returned.

This might be a manufacture defect, but I want to hear if anyone has seen this before.

That is obviously a Mfg defect. I have never seen or heard of anything like that before.

I'm still waiting for Bulldog's report of whether or not he got his or cancelled the order.
