I sent Great American a Beretta Silver Pigeon. I asked for an english stock. (This was before Cole has selling stocks.) They had my gun for over a year. Every time I called, they had a story. Finally, I said enough, they had never even started. Well they refused to send the gun back until I paid them an absurd amount. I felt I had no choice, so I paid. In return I only got my gun back in original condition.
To be fair, some have reported good results with them.
Both Denli and Luxus deal only in Turkish walnut. Denli has some nice wood. They only take payment via a bank wire. Because of their location, shipping charges are high. But may be worth it for some their blanks. Here is the website for Luxus.
