    Default Remember when it cost less...

    1.) Online companies did not charge tax (that was your responsibility)

    2.) FFLs did not charge transfer fees, and when they were required to, it was <$50

    3.) GunBroker didn't charge the buyer tax or a 1% "Compliance Fee"

    4.) Shipping firearms was easy and relatively inexpensive through FedEx and UPS?

    5.) There were no additional fees to use credit cards, and you received a discount when using ca$h

    6.) Getting a 10-minute haircut was <$40

    7.) Colorado did not charge $0.28 on every delivery

    And unrelated to increased costs, the attached messages never existed for Colorado.Click image for larger version.

    I kind of feel sorry for the kids born in the past 10 or 15 years. They aren't gonna really know a world where there was a better time...unless things just get unbearably bad. At least us geezers have good memories of things when we were young.

    I remember when the Rocky Mountain News has classified ads. Under sporting goods, there were often guns listed.

    No shipping, no compliance, no ffl, no CBI.

    Hell I remember the Rocky Mountain News! The Thrifty Nickel was good for shooting irons as well.
