Well while you say there is deals in stores and guns everywhere, that is not the case here. There is plenty of guns but they are modern hunting rifles and black rifles and modern new pistols. The gun shows bring in some most of the times that are not available anywhere local. It is 180 miles to seattle and 160 to spokane from here so it is not a drive there and see and then drive back propasition at all. IT is what it is... :roll: :lol:

Why on earth would anyone think that a dealer at a gunshow would sell at anything below retail? They have motel, food, gas, table rents, and may purchase something themselves paying that why would they wholesale something? The idea is to try and come home on the positive side of things not in debt. Bill :o
You want below retail you hit the flea markets, tag sales, and the classifieds in the paper.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

No flea markets, tag sales (?) or classifieds, could or would sell guns in CA.

The best classifieds are on the bulletin board at the West Victor Valley Shooting Club.

Flea markets here are a joke. Tacos and pirated clothes and DVDs and that is it. :angry4:

All we have is a Taco bell 25 miles away. I can't eat the shell, but I can still enjoy everything inside it:)

I would happily send half of the taco trucks over there just for you. Some are pretty decent (those are staying) and some are ratt s%&* bad and you should avoid (those you can have). :thumbsup:

Ohh, Jim. Taco Bell? You need to get away from the Right Coast for a bite to eat.
