As above, anyone bought or sold a firearm through this dealer, a friend has seen a rifle he likes.
Thanks

Re: Anyone had dealings with Donaldson's Guns Milton Keynes
Had about three guns from him in the last 12 months of so...
Good to deal with, no issues & very cheap RFD-RFD charges.
On the last purchase, the rifle came with a spare magazine. On collecting it I noticed no spare in the box.
Phoned them the next day to check - they sent found the mag. & sent it up by 24 hour courier!!
The guns I have bought from them have all been well described. Not something that can be said about many in the trade...even had on Browning A5 that I called to collect in Glos. On checking it I noticed it was S.1 (but they'd sold it to me as S2 - coz "it came off an SGC & the owners had it for years!") Have heard of a few similar S2=S1 snafu's on my travels...

Re: Anyone had dealings with Donaldson's Guns Milton Keynes
I purchased a 6.5x47 Remington/AI last year from them, they were really helpful sending me photo's and info before I made the trip over to them. I got a cup of tea and a good chat from them when I went over to buy it. If they were a bit closer I would use them more often.
I own "pretendy" rifles and muzzle brakes, and I'm not afraid to to use them

A month or so back I bought a BSA Martini Intl from them, this week got a parcel in the post ad they had found some bits it came in with (another fore end, sling and hook).
Can't ask better than that

A friend of mine had the same issue with a brand new Beretta. Not from this dealer I hasten to add.saddler wrote:Had about three guns from him in the last 12 months of so...

Re: Anyone had dealings with Donaldson's Guns Milton Keynes
12 + years ago I obtained a cracking Long Branch No4 from Colin and the other month a superb Uberti 1860 Army - which with Colin we concluded had probably never been fired.
From experience the quality of their stock is very high and a good range of pieces. Would recommend as very polite, informative and a peasure to deal with.
