I bought one of the new production versions of the Skeets gauge some time back. I have a friend who owns the original, but, it spends most of it's time at my house. When the gauge came, it was locked up tight, and couldn't be used. I phoned the gent and told him the problem. He seemed quite disturbed that a bad gauge had been shipped, and sent a new one, next day shipping, with $25 cash inside the box, and a written apology.
I didn't ask for any of it, I just wanted a gauge that worked. The second one he sent, did.
I'm not going to get into the debate about the different merits of bore gauges, properly used, they will all tell you what you need to know. It goes down a bore a few times when I get a gun, and then it sits on the shelf, waiting for the next gun to come along.
I'd do business with the new Skeets guy again in a heartbeat. Good guy.
Best,
Ted
