Armour and castings - advice?

Post by Qwertypolk »

Am moving up to get my own kit finally, and have decided on a helm I'm fond of, from Armour and castings. Anyone have any previous experiences with the business?

I've made several succesful purchases from them without incident

I have opinions of my own- strong opinions- but I don't always agree with them.

I purchased some cast bronze pieces, and was very happy. The shipping time was just what they promised, and the quality was good (especially given the low price).

They are excellent to deal with and make a rock solid helm.

Unfortunately, their website appears to be timing out on me.

Have you guys crashed another server? :)

I've owned and jousted (WCJA and IJA) in their armour. They make great, rock solid pieces that I am sure you will be pleased with.

Here ya go. It links to the helm I'm after, though if you're just looking for their site in general, it's easy to find their homepage.

I'm ready to order from them now! Have everything ready, and am awaiting an email reply!

I ordered a helm from them and was very impressed with the workmanship quality, quickness of delivery and customer service. Two thumbs-up!
