Great price, but for some of us, after shipping and transfer fee it would be cheaper to just pick one up locally. That, and I can't say I've ever heard of 'em?

Superior Arms kick a$$ Both my lowers are superior and they are a really nice tight fit and they have adjustment screws for improving trigger creep.

heard good things, but with shipping and the FFL transfer fees, wonder if any of the local dealers are going to pick a few up?

Starting to understand why so many local FFLs charge 50$ for a transfer.

With places like this selling items at my cost its hard to make any money.
Luckily my shop is just a part time gig with 0 inventory, so not like I am sweating not making any sales.

far...right

pete, what % of your sales are in state vs. out of colorado?

Well for the past three quarters its been ~20% local sales. Ebay and CalGuns are the largest majority. Of course with PayPal killing my account and then Trijicon's cease and desist eBay is now not a factor and the percentage of out of state sales will be much lower this quarter. 20k in monthly sales gone over night :crybaby:

Ahh well I was too busy and the profit margin was <5% any way :D

Gunshows have been a just barely break even. Do maybe 2k in sales for the entire weekend, 200-250 is profit. But then its 100$ for the tables, plus the time of sitting around doing nothing all weekend. Figured I would be better served sitting in the garage actually getting some work done. The funny thing is I know my prices are better then anyone else at the show. I walk around and price all of them. Depending on the election results I think the November show (Thanksgiving weekend) could be a big one.

There are a couple local customers that actually buy stuff from me, but the vast majority of the local people are just ording stuff online and using me for the $20 transfers I charge. No matter how good of a deal I can offer there's always an AIM out there with a better deal.

...and then Trijicon's cease and desist...


What happened there (if you don't mind me asking)? I thought it was just eGay was cancelling your auctions?:confused:
