Again, it all depends on what is meant by premium.
He was charging 15% more, before tax, for a used 1911 than Grabagun was charging for a new one. I don't expect a LGS to match internet deals but at least try to be competitive- in price where possible and in other areas to close the gap.

I buy a bunch of stuff from Stop, Drop and Shop because they're local and really cool and they don't gouge their customers. On used stuff they have great prices and new stuff they'll do everything they can to close that gap- not so with Family Firearms Sales.
