What does Matsuo owe you? (Problems with Matsuo)

[GunS1inger]

At this point, I'd love to go legal if I knew the first thing about it and had the disposable income. Such blatant thievery...officially ghosting me on all fronts now for the year...only took 7 years of dragging me along.

i am with you i would love to organize somehting leagal against this guy. i ordered an m4a1 pulse rifel and payed him 2500 it arived broken so i got in contact and sent it back to him to repair in september of 2020 it is now october 2024 and i have heard nothing from him since 2021 when he shut down his etsy store.

Just stumbled over this workshop tour (from Nov 2022) - Matsucorps M41a Pulserifle. The St. Louis workshop. (limited New Orders)

Sooo I guess he is /was till recently still working ...

For anyone who is considering a potential legal response, unfortunately there are statutes of limitation for suing someone (that is, a lawsuit has to be filed within a certain period of time after the act). These vary by state. You also run into the problem of suing someone across state lines, which will almost certainly require a lawyer and the associated fees. All of that means time, effort, and additional expense.

On the other hand, just from looking at this thread, I wonder if his conduct doesn't cross over from civil breach of contract to criminal fraud. If so, the state Attorney General's Office where he's located might be interested...

Also: if the deal was done online, perhaps internet fraud (FCC)?

Quite frankly, the Feds are a pain in the @$$ to deal with and usually don't do much. State AG's, on the other hand, can sometimes make progress (and, with enough evidence, they can sometimes get the Feds moving). They'd almost certainly need multiple complaints with evidence, tho.

Matthew Hudson in England. He’s on Facebook. Also Caramac props also in the UK I think.

I am extreme novice in how to contact recommended folks for parts for M1A1Pulse Rifle. If I am to understand correctly, there is a person out there that manufactures Full-on aluminum shrouds and other parts for M1A1Pulse Rifle.

Matthew Hudson I couldn't find, someone will need to help you with more specific informations for him. There are 50+ persons called that name on facebook.
Caramac props you can just type on google and will find his website.

As far as I know, there is no one producing aluminium shrouds. Best you can find is cold cast fiberglass shrouds.
The only manufactured "aluminium" shrouds that i know of were the HCG collectibles pulse rifle. People are buying those second hand to salvage the shrouds and use more accurate/metal parts for the other parts. Those are relatively expensive and hard to find.

It is kind of a dream of mine to one day produce machined aluminium shrouds but that day is still very far I think.

Crazy how stuff on Facebook can stay only on Facebook sometimes. I have never ever heard of aluminium shrouds or him.
Thank you for the info

You should join all the Facebook Aliens Pulse Rifle pages. Some great stuff being made. Unfortunately a lot of people don’t cross pollinate between forums and social media. Matthew Hudson has also done a bunch of YouTube videos with the great metal parts he builds.

 

[Hirohawa]

Some of his metal work.

Impressive. Crazy we have never seen this on the RPF!

I can vouch for Mathew Hudsons work. I have 6 Spas 12 reproductions and getting more. He also is making Shrouds out of aluminum.

AlienArmament - There's a rumour going round that his cages aren't quite right internally to fit a real steel 870, have you tried this, can if yes, can you confirm/refute the rumour?

I was going to ask where he acquired his Shroud dimensions from or is it a cast off the HCG ?

Maybe start a new thread to discuss Mathew Hudson’s work and not take this thread off topic from people keeping up-to-date with who is owed what by Matsuo.
