If anyone knows if that is correct please chime in. Thanks. No government employees were harmed in the making of this mess.

We were told it would be a 10-15 day turn around time. I did tell him not to rush on them since they were turkey guns and it was the middle of October. He said he may run a little over the 10-15 day mark but if he did it wouldn’t be by much. Hopefully he will have them ready soon...

I can understand lead times can vary but there's no excuse to quote a man 10-15 days turnaround and 4 months later he's still waiting on his gun. Sorry but that's just shitty business IMHO. WWguns has been in the dipping and cerakote business for several years now and does work nationwide. They've done all my work because they won me over by doing what they said they would do and when they said they would do it. Sent leaning against a big oak in knee deep water

WWGuns dipped my wedding ring, sunglasses and my browning cynergy. My wedding ring started chipping the day I got it back. He put mine and my buddy’s shotguns back together wrong. I just got my cynergy back from being dipped a second time. My glasses have been dipped twice and is still not holding up...

It turned out fantastic. Wanted another one done recently, he'd sold his dipping business and I couldn't find anyone else to do it. Public Land Owner

They still look like they did the day he picked them up. It takes a while for the work to be done but it's top shelf work and I'd use him in a heartbeat. I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time. NRA Life Member

I was the only one there and he showed me around the shop, showed me some of the work he'd done, told me all about it and even let me watch and record him dipping a shotgun receiver in Bottomland. I can understand being frustrated with long lead times, but I'm just going to plan accordingly and use him because I know it will be done right. I'll be taking all of my guns to him.

Cole Baker is a very stand up guy but the wait times can be a bit long due to him not having many workers and he has tons of customers.
