Worst attitude Ive heard in while...and flawed logic too.
Not too bright this one.
God bless

ok so I have made up my mind to purchase an Emp 4. Prices range locally from $979.00 to $1099.00 plus tax and background. One Store had quoted me $910.00 the when I got there after a 40 minute drive oh the price is $999.00. Me well I spoke with ... while at your location and was told the price would be $910.00 well the if you want it its $999.00. So with that in mind I can purchase online for a cost of about $956.00 free shipping and includes transfer fee and background check. So why not buy on line?
Because eventually there will be very few true Brick and Mortar Stores to do business with. And when that happens you will have to order everything for what sport you do off the internet. You also are supporting local business's.
I would suggest that you find a local gun shop and just do business with them. Most generally speaking better deals come with being a store supporter. Like you walk into a store that you have done business with for a few years and they know what your wants and desires are on you wish list.
And one of your wish list items walks out of the back room and its yours at a nice discount.
Think about if you buy a new 1000 dollar pistol from Buds online and out of the gate you have a issue with it.. The shop you transfered it from could care less that you have a problem. It's your baby to deal with..
Now if you bought it from your local full time brick & mortar shop, you just stop in and a quick chat and they take care of it for you..
What so many people just don't seem to understand, that if as a business you don't turn a reasonable profit, you just go out of business.
A business has to not only pay all the bills associated to that business it HAS to turn a reasonable profit.
Edit... I hope that all that disagree, one day they too own a small business and then they will understand very quickly working for wages just does not keep the wolf away. You gotta make a fair profit..
My LGS won't tolerate a lapse in unsafe gun handling, ever. I will admit his prices are sometimes a little higher but after I figure in shipping it's not that much more. I prefer to help support the guy who saved a little powder and primers in the back for his loyal customers when we couldn't get anything to speak of. Please don't misunderstand my post as I'm not bashing you and will never tell another man how to spend his hard earned dough, just offering another perspective.All online for me when I need anything.
Stay out of shops at all costs! Unsafe gun handling, sky high prices, no selection, are only a few reasons that keep me away.
/Boom, drop the mic, end thread!So you hold a entire retail industry at fault for one independently owned gun store ?????
Who do you transfer your internet purchases from ??
And this is not personal, but if you really feel that your local gun shops are that ill stocked and you could do an much better job, then why haven't you Sir gone to you local bank and get a small business loan and open your own gun and supply meca superstore. I mean really, do you town good. It's not hard, a couple hundred grand and some sweat and poof, you are a Corporate CEO.
You will quickly find out being the CEO ain't all jet setting around and drinking Manhattan's.
