    So I know I am a little late to the party from what I am reading online, but I had ordered a another rifle from Loki weapon systems and found out yesterday that they closed up their shop and are planning on filing bankruptcy. So I am out the parts I sent them and $800. I know it could be worse but I really don't have a grand or so just throw away.

    I ordered another rifle from this small company because they made such a good product, the owner was always the person I spoke with and he took care of everything I needed. He even had some custom work done for me or put parts on that they wouldn't normally use. I guess you never can tell what someone is like.

    To make matters even worse, my bank can not dispute the charge because it has been too long. There really is no protection from this stuff.

    thanks for letting me rant guys.

    From what I know now it is just mismanagement. They have packed up and left their shop, the website is down, dealers are missing their orders etc.

    File a claim in small claims court quickly.

    They will have to notify you of the 341a meeting. Go to the meeting with documentation. You may ask the trustee to rule in your favor and order the jerk to pay up but you gotta move quickly.

    Hope it goes well.

    I feel for you man. I got ripped off by the Silent RX scam with their $100 special suppressor deal. I would really be honked off to lose $800.

    What parts did you lose to Loki? I have some spare AR parts lying around. If I have something you lost, I will send it to you, to take the sting out of the mess.

    You Sir are extremely generous and for that alone I thank you. I sent them a spikes buffer, a Magpul ctr and moe grip, a surefire comp, a bravo company charging handle. I just had most of that laying around here before but the surefire comp.

    I am still working with the local authorities to try to recover my parts at least, so please do not feel obligated in the least. I am just very grateful we have people like you around here. Thank you

    If you sent gun parts in for them to use that you provided and they do not return them is that considered theft or conversion? Better teeth in a criminal pursuit than civil to get their attention.

    I believe that would be theft, I spoke with a Sheriff about it all today. He and the da are trying to get a case together.

    You might check with local attorneys in the area who might be representing other creditors and see if they would be willing to help. Getting something back may be better than nothing.

    Good Point Indy60! Also, in some states, you might get treble damages and attorney fees if you sue on a theory of loss as a result of a criminal act!
