May Events For James River

May 5th, 2009

There are two major events in May that James River Armory will be simultaneously attending.

Mark will be at the N-SSA Spring Nationals, Winchester Virginia.  He will be in our usual Sutler location from Thursday the 14th until Sunday the 17th.  If you are attending the event stop by and say hello.  Mark will have a limited number of firearms with him so if you are in the market for one, get there early.

Morgan and Danny will be at the NRA Convention, Phoenix Arizona sharing a booth with Val Forgett of Navy Arms.  We will be showcasing our World War II weapons at our first NRA event.  We expect lots of exposure and hope to make many new friends in the industry.

While we are out of town it is best to email any questions or inquiries as no one will be answering the phone or checking messages for the better part of a week.

Thanks to all our customers we continue to grow our business and get the kind of National exposure both of these shows will provide.

Hey Folks,
Thanks for the reply. As I opened your e mail I heard a back-up alarm outside (Fedex truck backing in),,,yup…just got the rifle. I am tickled to death…great workmanship…case is a nice surprise! You have a 110% satisfied customer here! Thanks again…it has been a pleasure doing business with you!

Mike (New York)
The sight adjustment you made has made the 03A3 perfect. I took it out yesterday had the sights one click off dead center for the wind.  Shot the black out of the target.  I had two guys watching for awhile. They wanted to know where to get a rifle like mine.
Helen (Maryland)

Hey guys, I received my carbine Friday as planned.   To say the very least, you guys exceeded my expectations!  Had it not been for the serial number, I would not have believed that this was the same rifle.  Did I mention that it was BEAUTIFUL?  You get the Five Star+ rating, or if the ten scale is applied…its a 10+!  Fantastic job, thanks for all of your help.

Chad (Alaska)

Gentlemen,
I received my M1 Garand last Friday, December 5th,’08. You are to be commended on the restoration, it is outstanding.  Parkerizing and stock  replacement  exceeded my expectation. Turnaround and service also above par.  Sorry, if this sounds like a testimonial  ad by your CEO, but its just the “plain facts”.
Again, Thank You,
Larry (West Virginia)

Gentlemen,

I am the owner of the first Richmond smoothbore carbine that you produced.  I have been carrying it on horseback since 2005.  It has performed outstanding for an average of 14 events per year since then.  I whole heartedly recommend your products to every reenactor I can.  Yours are the Cadillacs of the weapons for the reenactor communities.  I thank you for your devotion to detail and quality.

Thank you,

Gary (Tucson, AZ)

Hello, Just wanted to say I am very happy with my M1 from you.  Nice Job.  I will recommend you to my friends.

Charles (Sidney, Ohio)

Hi Mark,

I purchased a couple of guns from you back in 2006 and am very satisfied.  I continue to rack up medals in my N-SSA region, and I attribute my success to your firearms.

Jim (Middletown, NY)

I had my Euroarms P53 defarbed by James River Armory about 3 years ago. Mr. Hartmann did a fantastic job in workmanship. It was very hard to distinguish from the original I have in my collection. Customer service and turnaround time were very good.
Three cheers to James River Armory!

Harold Adams

I received the WRA Garand in good order today.  All I can say is “WOW”!  Thanks for the great job and thank Mark as well and also for the WRA hammer too.  I’ve shown it to a few people so far and they are speechless.  I’m sure you may get some more Garands from S. Florida in the near future.
Thanks again.
Regards,
Vincent (South Florida)


I wanted to thank you guys again – My rebuilt Garand is really first rate!!

Rob (Maryland)
I would really like to thank you guys for a job well done on my M1 Garand.  It is so beautiful, I don’t want to shoot it.  For everyone involved in the process of this restoration, I thank you once again.   Perfect job!!!

We have just received a quantity of “new production” M1 Carbine Magazines.  These are great looking and great operating reproductions of the original GI Magazines.  These are not a cheap imitation, but are truly fine reproductions.  Individually packaged in factory wrappers.

Set of 4 magazines $50.00

They are available on our website at M1 Carbine Magazines.

M15SA PAGE HAS BEEN TEMPORARILY TAKEN OFF LINE

November 13th, 2008

Due to a huge uptick in sales of M15SA’s (AR-15) Type Rifles we are temporarily out of stock and like everyone else searching for parts.  This, we believe, is a short term problem that will resolve itself as supplies catch up to increased demand. Our web page for these weapons has been taken off line until we are able to determine availability and pricing with some degree of accuracy.  Check back in a few weeks for an update.

Thank you for your patience
