Sorry to say but you got ripped off. They typically go for under $300. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And a cleaning kit costs what, $20? He still got taken. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ronoverdrive 0 Posted September 27, 2009 A Ruger Mk III 22/45 with the 5 1/2" bull barrel. Paid $440 for the Ruger, a brick of CCI Minimags, and a cleaning kit. Black or stainless? Stainless Mak0: Mine is Stainless Steel which costs more. Bud's price is $320 for my gun and the cheapest on GunsAmerica is $335. Add shipping for GunsAmerican and the FFL fees for either I made out like a bandit buying from Solamon's. The Ruger was $350 The Minimags was $35 The cleaning kit was $20 add that up with tax and nics it comes up to a little under $440. Everyone else I will post pics soon.

GoNRA 12 Posted September 27, 2009 nice!! im gonna have to check out that place, never been there and I live in the area. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfy 51 Posted September 27, 2009 His hours are very limited I say that so you don't drive over and he's closed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ronoverdrive 0 Posted September 27, 2009 nice!! im gonna have to check out that place, never been there and I live in the area. Like Wolfy said his hours are limited. He's only open for like 3 hours or so 3 days a week because he operates his business part time out of a home made bunker in his back yard. He's very patient and gives you his undivided attention when working with you. Didn't seem to matter there were two other guys in his shop, once it was my turn he was working with me and just me. I really enjoyed working with him. His hours I believe are 1pm - 4pm Sunday and 6:30pm - 9pm on Weds & Fri. Also he doesn't have a credit card machine so bring cash or your checkbook.

Everyone else I will post pics soon. $350 is fair for the stainless model. Since you didn't specify I assumed you got the standard blued model. Solamon's typically has decent prices, especially when compared to most of the other NJ dealers famous for the free anus widening they include with every firearm purchase.

NJChiroDoc 0 Posted September 30, 2009 As far as buying guns. I am still VERY fond of the bullet hole. Jen and her family are great! At this point they are like family! When I need something they are there, if I have a problem ir is fixed, and they are fair with there prices. I know I might be able to save 10 here 20 there buying in line but at what cost. If we do not support our local small bissnesses one day they will not be there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
