This is just an FYI

It has been stated that the high markups on guns will start again. My take is that I plan to use the same spreadsheet that gives me my markup on my inventory on normal inventory firearms that I have been using. I will not be selling ARs or high cap magazines (if I can get them) anywhere except gunbroker. The items will be posted at my normal markups as a starting price. This way I will not be price gouging, just putting something up for auction and the market will determine the final price. This decision came about because in the past when I made deals for a basic markup with the agreement that the buyer would not be reselling the item, those items turned up on gunbroker.

I got in the business to sell my products at a fair price and I'm not going to change now. So, I hope to see you all at the Tanner Gun Show at the end of the month.

Only if there's shuttle service:) GFL finding a place to park within a 5 mile radius. Better have a cattle prod handy, they'll be busting down fences and a stampeding.

Forgot to add, good for you. You own a business that may or may not be illegal in the near future, or impossible to restock, get it while you can.

Sounds like a fair plan. The Bushmaster I put on layaway a couple weeks ago at Budsgunshop was $850, yesterday it was $950.

Ditto on the ridiculous crowds. You need to wire your wares with alarms. I bet theft, or attempts there of, will rise dramatically.

Randy, can you PM me a list of your current stock, I still cannot access your link.

Stripped lowers will be a gunbroker item, sorry. I will be happy to do the transfer for you if you can order any in from the online wholesalers.

Of course! Can't even find damn mags right now and by the time they're available they'll probably cost me my left nut.
Glad to see you're being honest though!

Thanks, I will let you know. I may just go buy a whole new rifle. That the way the wife is leaning and you all know how that goes.

Without you knowing it first hand rumors are worthless and do nothing for anyone.

You won't see my sorry ass down there. No way in Hell. I stocked up a few years ago, all the procrastinators are going to be there asking where are all the guns, why is it taking so long, why is all the ammo gone, why are the $$$ so high?? F -That!!! If you wait you [fail]
