Sadly, even if you do resolve it he’s never going to be happy; it’s a lose/lose situation, but I do hope you get paid and he gets his gun back.

Seems there’s a certain type of person who complains after the fact thinking if they complain enough they’ll get a price reduction.

I was told a long time ago by a contractor who was doing work on our house that the cost is not in the materials, it is in the labor. I would image that the labor was intense for a project such as this and the expertise to turn out that kind of work is not cheap. You get what pay for.
