My local shop rules. Yes, the prices are bit higher than I'd like to see on mos things, but in my exeprince, thats the "starting" price, and is negotiable. Also, I've literally been going to this shop since I was 10-12 years old. I've yet to cross the threshold, and not been called...by name...by the owner. That in itself wouldn't be amaizing, but this has been going on for 18 years now! Sometimes I have occaSion to vist the shop 1-2 times a week, other times it may be months before I stop by. I orignally started shopping there becasue it was near my grandparents house, and I could walk there. What amazed me is, after moving away from the area, and not having been in the shop for about 4 years...I walked in and was greeted like I'd be there yesterday! THAT made me feel important and appreciated, esepcially since I'm not a "big ticket" buyer usually. I strongly recommed any gun enthusist check out Teton River Traders in Ft Pierre, SD. Its not huge and doesn't have an endless inventory, but typically, they seem to have whatever it is I'm looking for at the time.
