I need to pick up a pair of stripped lowers. Maybe I'll hit up the next Wes Knodel show. Seems they average $40 online, but i cant find transfers for less than $25, so it just kind of makes ordering online a moot point if i can walk in and pick them up for about the same. I've never had much luck at WAC when it ever comes down to what I'm actually there looking for. I find lots of other stuff, but rarely what i went there for. lol

Bought a RM380 (new) for $200 OTD. Just something to keep its older brother, my Rohrbaugh R9, company.
Found some out of production bullets to keep up the stash of "what works". Most importantly - yard signs for "No on 1639". |

Can't seem to get their website to work. Gunbroker is showing bigher transfer costs, but maybe I'll make a run down there one day. I'm going to huild up an A2 and and M4 clone at some point, but i need to get the lowers cheap enough to make both possible.

Local shops routinely have cheap lowers, including Anderson.

Here is his thread on the Free Transfers. viewtopic.php?f=51&t=92450 I know it's still going on, because 3 people from my company just had PSA send him firearms that they went and picked up. |

I was helping some friend sell off the estate of another friend. We had tons of C&R and german ww2 stuff. Mauser 98's some trainers and ariska's sold a ton of it. Great show.

Lots of really nice looking handmade knives too. M203 QD/ Matech Guy sounds awesome and probably handsome too..  |

How can you sell Anderson AR Lowers for $100.00? They are on sale at Cabelas for $40.00 right now. Ridiculous.

I think the bigger show some people just buy a bunch st AIM and resell with a mark up. Buyer beware. _________________ Why does the Penguin in Batman sound like a duck?

I don't know... he started pulling out really nice rifles and I started to feel inadequate...

RocketScott wrote: Lots of overpriced stuff. $100 Anderson lowers........ WOW that is obviously crazy. Hell I had 15 Anderson lowers in stock and sold them all for $55 OUT THE DOOR. The key to the gunshows is taking the large amount of time required to shop the whole show and buy immediately when you find a deal. BECAUSE....The good deals disappear quickly. Maybe this is why I always have a large crowd around my tables.... Edited because my fingers are too fat to type correctly....LOL _________________ aka Big_Daddy Nitro Products FFL Dealer SOT Dealer Last edited by Nitro_Guns on Sun Oct 21, 2018 7:39 pm, edited 1 time in total. |
