Has anyone been able to contact Rock Creek Barrels in the last two weeks? Every call that I make goes to a voice message that asks for a mailbox user code and will not take a message. They are not answering email either.
 
Re: Rock Creek Barrels contact

I always wonder what goes on at Rock Creek. 4 or 5 years ago I tried to order a Med. weight M1A barrel. Spoke to Mike twice, turns out he hunts in the same area of South Dakota as I do. Had a really nice hour long conversation. He took my order and told me it would be done in 2 months. 3 months later and no barrel so I started calling. Nobody ever answered the phone. After another month I gave up. Never did see the barrel or hear from them. No hard feelings I guess when business is so good that you dont need to fufill your commiments one less customer is no big deal. Called Krieger and got my barrel as promised.

Yes when Mike was there by himself he was very hard to get ahold of and tough to get barrels from. Reason you couldn't get us on the phone was we were gone to a shoot. I was wondering why there were no messages on the answering machine when we got back, I will check to see whats wrong with the machine when i get in tomorrow. If you have troubles getting through on phone or with emails anyone can PM me on here and I will get back to you right away I usually check my PM's 3 to 4 times a day. We are swamped like every other barrel maker right now so just keep calling til you get through. We are having problems with a couple of the email addresses on the website best one to use is mikerock@rockcreekbarrels. We are in the middle of designing a new website also and we will be changing around the email addresses at that time and hopefully it will help with the email problems. But like I said before if you aren't getting a email response just PM me and i will get back to you same day.

Re: Rock Creek Barrels contact

I will attest to them being very busy! I have visited the shop first hand and trust me they are working on barrels to be sure! If for some reason you can't get a hold of someone or you are not gotten back to in a timely manner then something is wrong and it's not that they are ignoring you. These guys are as good as they come!

Re: Rock Creek Barrels contact

I've sent 3 emails over the last 6 months trying to get some info on a barrel. Not heard back yet. Even tried calling a couple of times. This must have been why no answer or return emails.
 
Re: Rock Creek Barrels contact

I spoke to Paul last week at the shop. It took awhile to get through but, I got him. Super nice guy and I hope my 8 twist 6mm barrel will be at Lawton this week (please, please, please).
 
Re: Rock Creek Barrels contact

I received a 30 cal barrel about three weeks ago. I sent an email with what I wanted and ask for a price and lead time. Got a reply the same day from Paul. I was quoted 8 weeks and had the barrel in 8 weeks.
