I bought 290 firearms from a pawn shop at $38.50 each. I had to take the bad with the good, even so the worst I could sell for at least $38.50.

Pawn Shops usually don't buy merchandise. They give you a loan, using it a collateral. After 90 days, or whatever the time period is, they put if up for sale. In other words they have had dead merchandise sitting for the last 90 days. They should make money on the operation. If you don't...

"Most gun shops mark up the HP over MSRP, that is $600-700, most will lie to you and tell that there will be no more HPs produced. I attend 8-10 gunshows a year and every year find at least one HP that I am looking for for $400. FFL gunshow vendors ask $7-800 for new ones and llie about their...

You wanted them to fix it for free? A shotgun that was out of warranty and had been through who knows how many hands? Why didn't you insist on knowing what the problem was. If the person you spoke to didn't know, I bet his supervisor would.

"Many FFL/gunshop dealers charge around $50.00. Why I have no idea. A well run shop can do FFL transfers for $20/25.00 plus any state/local background check fees and still get a profit. Some gun shops list themselves on firearm sites then act like it's a big hassle when you contact them, ."...

"$25 at the pawn shop I use, $40 at the nearest shop. The gunsmith that used to be over in W. Columbia checked his records. He did over 500 transfers one year, so he raised his price by $10. $35 is a bit high, but I didn't have a problem with it since he always cut me a break on work and he...

You are paranoid, there is nothing to worry about. According to NICS, 95% are approved immediatly. Of the 5% who aren't and are bumped to the second level, 95% of them are approved. Very few people are delayed and even fewer are denied. Of course if you are going to get denied why fill out...

I just mill them out. They also have a roll pin in the bottom of the block. What you are left with is a hole in the side of lower. You can carefully fit the existing pin, peen it from the inside and loctite it. Other wise you are left with the hole or holes or you can find some other...

Like I said, I don't know anything. I will attempt to find out tomorrow or when info is available. I know STI is about to release a revolver, the SAA Texican.

I just started working at STI in the Gunsmithing Department. I am one of the people who does the final assembly as well as other steps in the manufacturing process. We are not working on any of these pistols yet. I have heard rumors, nothing I remember. I will ask tomorrow and post what I...

"heck, I would have done it for free if they would just let me take one home every now and then.... " I was just commenting because I was just hired. I have alot of practical gunsmithing experience. I accepted less than I wanted just for the expericence and the fact that STI is expanding...

"I would like to find more of the guys from 95 to 96.just to see what they are doing now." I graduated from the Colorado School of Trades in October 1994.

You probably asked for too much money.

The BATFE has only approve faxing your FFL, no other electronic transfer method is authorized. If a dealer signs and uploads his FFL, technically, this will not be a valid FFL. I, for one, would not use this service, not because it isn't a good idea, but because the BATFE could cite you for a...

"Jumping in kind of late but this is my opinion. NICS also checks NCIC warrants. What better way to have a wanted person stick around a gun store than have him pay for the gun then wait for the approval. This gives NICS time to call the local LEO and have them respond to the store." NCIS...

"Before you buy a firearm from a local gun shop/FFL dealer, I'd check out the prices and/or details about it from GunsAmerica.com. www.GunsAmerica.com is a great way to know how much a weapon sells for and where you can find a lower price. It's free and easy to use too " . This method...

My job is not to sell guns. My job is to help customers. If a customer buys a gun, good; if not, good. I still had a nice time trying to understand exactly what the customer was looking for in a handgun and showing him/her various makes and models that meet those criteria. I am friendly. I am...

"Hawk- say you're the dealer, and I take up 20 mins of your time, pay you $1000 in cash, then do the NCIS. It's delayed, and I come back 5 days later to find I've been denied. Now give me my $1000 cash back. KInda along the lines of when you donate blood they ask if you're donating so you can...
