PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING - IMPORTANT MESSAGE - PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING
Please note that the forums in this category are to be used to ask questions or to show us pistols from these manufacturers. They can also be used to ask questions about the parts of a particular pistol from one of these manufacturers, as long as the question relates to the original parts.

  • If your pistol malfunctions and you want to ask for help on how to troubleshoot it, post your question in the "Gunsmithing and Refinishing" forum, not in this one.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market parts, these questions should go in the "Parts - Grips" forum, not in the manufacturers forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market magazines, these questions should go in the "Magazines" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about holsters, those questions should go in the "Holsters" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about conversion kits, those questions should go in the "Conversion Kits" forum, not these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about which ammo to use with your pistol, those questions should be posted in the "Ammo" forum, not these forums.

Messages with questions for after-market parts, magazines, holsters, conversion kits, ammo etc. will be moved to the proper forum and a warning will be issued.

IMPORTANT: In Photo-threads, each post should contain at least one picture of your own. Quoting a previous post, does not make your post compliant with that requirement. Photo threads are NOT for chatting.

Crown City Arms?

Can anyone give me some info on this company. A gunshow dealer tried
to tell me they were affliated with Caspian Arms. It sounds like he was trying to feed me a line. Thanks

I just did some poking around on the Net regarding Crown City Arms. I didn't find anything associating them with Caspian, nor did I find many favorable comments about the manufacturer. Not surprisingly, it looks like the outfit has also gone belly-up.

With that, I'd stay away from this "offer".

Somehow I do not think they are in any way associated with Caspian, but call Caspian and verify that.

Year ago, I bought some itmes from them. The quality was on par with Gun Parts Corp.- ok, but not great. They went out of business close to 20 years ago. They had no affiliation with anyione that I know of.
