I figured you would be pro 15 and hour burger flipper. Just makes sense.

Didn't figure you'd recognize sarcasm either. Keep raising prices on everything until it's either unaffordable or they close the doors. I can only assume you hold one of those prized FFL's.

I'm just going to leave it at this. no I don't have one of those prizes....

but I am amazed that so many that don't own a business can see to tell the owners how they should run it... most that think this way would fail quickly at a business.

I really cant blame LGSs for charging for paperwork, they have overhead and inventory and liability. Then you want them to charge you nothing for online purchases in direct competition with them, Then who complains when a LGS goes out of business.
Doesnt matter too much here in the PR of MD since we cant buy lowers anyhow.

Since when? I bought one last weekend. Paid the man, filled out the form, survived the NICS check, out the door. You can own all the (legally bought) lowers you want. Where it gets squirrely is the strict limitations we have on the configuration of the finished build- H-bars only, minimum overall length that precludes most "shorties", etc. Go up to Hendershot's in Hagerstown and peruse enough Maryland-legal AR-stuff to gladden the heart of any AR aficionado. I'm having a ball specing-out what is my first AR build. I had no idea, having assumed that AR ownership is a Byzantian-like process in our state. Not true.

(For the record, going with 20" barrel, flat top receiver, and a mix of detachable iron sights, detachable carry handle, and optics. Would I want a shorty tactical carbine? Neat as they are, I don't see my arthritic 63 year old butt doing any "running and gunning" ever again, so a 20" musket will serve me fine!)

Looking at Andersons lowers at Aim Surplus. They will not ship to our STATE. A lot of online / MO refuse to ship to MD.

I asked my dealer if they could do a transfer for me or could they beat AIM's and Primary Arms price on Anderson lowers. I came home yesterday with two more lowers. wink

Now I need LPK's, uppers, and BCG's......

Some places on the East coast should really, though its a shame, still be thankful they can own an AR at all.

Its a pain finding deals on complete lowers with a non-adjustable stock and a REAL pain in the ass finding crowned (non threaded) barrels on sale.

If you want to get your own FFL it costs you $100
then you can give away your time. It gets old fast dealing with people who want everything at cost.

The last time I asked a simple question of a law office I got a bill for $160.
Why should a gun dealer work for free?

They shouldn't, but some folks want to limit their wage, and at teh same time others are pushnig for a higher minimum wage....

Its nuts.

I still love it though, I use who works for me. And they make money and i"m happy with them making money.

I used to have folks want to pay me the exact invoice... LOL

I had a "friend" that wanted a Glock at cost and got upset when he found out what the shipping would cost and the sales tax.
How fing cheap can you get?

BTDT. Funny in the end...

Think you can find X cheaper or a transaction cheaper then knock yourself out!
