Gunbroker has gotten ridiculous. I was watching a Ruger RLS tang safety in .308. Good condition, with a $200 Leupold scope. It sold for $2200!!
I hate using Gunbroker, but I have a couple rifles that could go at these prices.

Shill bidders. Just like they do on eBay to drive up prices.

Watch closely, the same rifle will be back up for sale within a week by another seller.

It's supposed to be brand-new 2020 production in factory box and the MSRP on that is $785.00
Crazy to pay that much for a gun that is only unavailable on a temporary basis

It's almost as bad as going to the local DNR auction where the sell confiscated guns. People paying $450 for a beat up Rem 870 express. Have you not been to a store...ever?

I still have the one I bought in 1968, Local Big Box Store ( long ago forgot it's name) had a sale on them.
$68 in 1968. , oil finish walnut stock, 35 Remington cal., also bought a Redfield 4X wideview.
Still have the gun and it shoots pretty darn good for a 52 year old rifle, pretty accurate for shots under 100 yds', wonder what that's worth.

No it isn't. I actually sell on Gunbroker and some of my stuff goes way high and I can guarantee you I don't have shill bidders.

What's the difference between a 336A and a 336C?


Remember why, specifically, the Bill of Rights was written...remember its purpose. It was written to limit the power of government over the individual.

My Walmart has 160 rounds of 30/30, normally $16.97, in the spot for 300WSM which are $39.97. I haven't told anyone because I am going to get me 160 rounds of 30/30 for 25% off at our employee shopping night. I dont even own a 30/30.

You gotta do what you got to do... Find shelf space for the 30-30 regardless! wink
