Hello All!!
Well as the title suggest, I'm curious as to everyone's input on the subject. First of all, personally I believe in buying local. I've worked in ma and pop shops ever since I was in high school, one a grocery shop and two a car shop. Not to mention I have family (uncles) that own small shops and cater to their community.
I understand that buying local you are going to pay a little more; for the service more then anything. However, my question would be how much more is it worth to pay before going to say a bigger company store chain? Is there a line?
Recently I've been gun shopping, and I've found exactly what I want in two stores, one local and one in a big store chain. difference is considerable that i could buy a few extras (sling, ammo, etc). Normally I would just go local, reasons for as stated above, but since money is slightly tight, the situation has me a little torn.
So I'm asking, how much is too much?
