Matt
Despite what the above have said you managed to get one, nice, how much did it cost you and which one did you get?

I have just received my stock purchased from Wild Dog in Australia 3 weeks ago.
It was shipped an the 23re and got delivered right to my door in Germany) this morning.
I must say that I had a very good contact with these guys in australia. Always answered my mails right away and were quite nice on the phone. they said that they had some trouble with their business, but now seems to be back again.
The stock itself is very well made. Good buy.

Well more news to add. A mate was over near where Wild Dog is based and went to see if he could find them and ask person to person as to the whereabouts of mu stock.He went to their shop and it was closed down and said that they had moved to a new address.He went there and could not find them even after looking at the buildings for 20 mins. Where have they moved to?????????No info on their website so whats the go???? Where are they as I want my stock!

I concur with what has been written about the business practices of Wild Dog. My mates and I waited over 12 months for stocks with lies, lies and more lies regarding delivery dates from Steve, Mark – and that’s only if our calls were answered which most of the time they were not. They never returned calls if we left a message. Gave up waiting and still haven’t heard if they have made them. Have also heard since that the paint jobs on some stocks have been flaking or rub off after a while and one stock split so in retrospect I am glad I didn’t get one. They have had too many chances and too much time to rectify the situation so all companies they have dealt with have moved on over the years (Lightforce as mentioned above). Take the advice in the previous comments and stay away from them as no one in Australia believes anything they say anymore and better products at a better price in the marketplace now anyway.

Okies no worries and thanks for that.Anyway I think most people can see what we Aussies think of the buisness termn and ideas of WD.Really hope they can pull themselves out of this hole as a reputation is all you have to trade on.

MMMMMMM my last post was pulled. Buyer beware as they have got a very poor reputation here in Australia and even Nightforce was made to go elsewhere as they couldnt take the lies and delays…See the above posts as to their status in their home state.

Hahahahaha Wild Dog has been so slow at supplying the local Australian market that they now have to look to sell to the USA. Why is it like the above say that I have been waiting for over a year for a stock and they cant even give me a call to say that they cant supply. All the local shops in Brisbane where Wild Dog is based refuse to deal with theml Like Kerri above said….got a McMillan and love it.Wild Dog stocks are well made and an awsome product…..just cant handle the fact that [they don’t honor commitments] and well you get the picture. I was dealing with a guy called Steve and he just plain out wasted my time and after 5 months I ordered a McMillan and have since built another 3 guns and they all wear a HS Precision stock as they have a Australian dealer who had them in stock. Have not heard much good about the stock situation lately. Hope they can fix the problems.

Guys,
Ass the above posters mention…be aware that many people that I know have had the stocks on order for up to a year and they can never get anyone to commit to a delivery date. My stock is still on order but I got smart after talking to a local gunshop her in Brisbane where WD are based and got a McMillan. Have had it over 6 months and love it. Cant wait to tell WD when (if) they ever call that I ran out of patience after 4 months …. Buyer beware is all I can say.
