I bought a glove from them by phone about 3 weeks ago. They're still going.

Bought a Scatt a couple of months ago so as far as I know they are still around.

I tried to buy several items from them. Called and emailed for a solid week. Left at least 2-3 messages on personal and business voice mail. Still to this day they never called me back and that was 4 months ago. I won't try anymore...

I was trying to buy some centra stuff from them about a month ago, had a few emails back and forth then no responses to phone or email. Might try again at some other time, but I found what I needed now elsewhere.

I contacted Centershot via email in early december (probably the first week). I was asking if they had a Kurt Thune combination glove (solid and top grip). I never received a respose, and I specified size and whether I was right or left handed. I never received a response. However, a guy on my shooting team called them about the Corani boots and was able to talk to them. Centershot needs to do a better job of communicating back (esp. an email sent 2 months ago. They are a business, after all. They have yet to respond to my email.

Just a thought maybe they didn't get your email, it does happen.

Then their email servers are down, and not just for a day or two, but for months. I tried calling and emailing. Look I know them personally, but there is no excuse for someone who says they are running a business but refuse to return phone calls or emails, regardless if they have 'other jobs'... I have several jobs and one happens to be my own business and I make sure to contact the people back to at least respond out of common courtesy.

Janet has taken a new job directing competition development for Walther in Rogers, Arkansas. Marcus is still in VA, working for NRA and keeping the business going. He was in Germany on business for 10 days or so.

yup, they're still in business. I bought a scatt system from them during the first week of January. The people there are nice, however, their call time hours listed on the site dont seem to be right. I did have to call their number periodically throughout the day until i got an answer.
