any pics of this range indoors? 100 yard indoor... must of cost them a bundle but on a rainy day like today....

yup.... always irks me to see people dry firing semi 22's at the store.... and then feeling bad for the fellow who is eventually going to buy it. do not dry fire semi 22's

welcome sir!

hehe, perhaps should be more clear. Lets put it this way. Wasr 10. Buy it a year ago for $350, or less before that. Now, you can buy one for about 500 from a distributor... yet some stores have sold them for far more... double. They could of put $1,500 on the tag and I am sure it would of sold because there is such an amount of new people who just go into the store and pay any price they ask as they dont know any better.

not talking about normal market supply and demand.... i am talking about prices beyond where they should be. ie, $1800 base ar 15's. that can be ordered online for $1,200 No one is saying Saiga 12 prices should be $250.... but Selling them for $850 or $900 ? Classic Arms, distributors selling for $450 to $590.

So was shooting today... walking around the range, talking to others there, meeting many new faces and shooters. Walk into the store, look at the new toys, talk with the shop folks.... All of this got me thinking. We all know the prices today on ammo, firearms, accessories are priced higher than ever. Seeing $9.99 sticker on one of my older bricks of ammo, and then shelling out $25 for a brick at the range. $10.99 out of stock 9mm at Natchezz or $16.99 at a store, or $20.99 at the range. Is this price gouging, or just good business? Are we just failing to adjust to the new realities of higher everything? Why is it all of the sudden an insult to NOT want to pay sticker price for a firearm and want to negotiate because you can pick up the same firearm for 30% less from a distributor online... or at least what we paid before.

Groups open up quite a bit, or the round count in my head aproaches 300 between all calibers.

indoor 100 yard range? nice.

didnt they pull this stuff before? sorry for your loss brother.

All proceeds go towards the forum. =P

I have 13, new sealed. =P Let me know. $8 each? And these are HP brand. =P

Saw a 90-2 today at Cheyenne Mountain. Though I believe it was a 9mm. Otherwise, visit our vendor and sponsor here, PK90 of Arms and Ammo and he may be able to order it for you. Welcome!

+1 to slickdeals. and fatwallet. =) For those reloading rifle rounds, how much cheaper?

Dicks $11.99 if you buy by the case, $12.98 on sale.

very nice. new used? where did you pick it up? I found the newer ones I saw... were in much better shape, ie wood stocks, than the one I had.

You must be nuts to buy anything at most gunshops right now. I didnt say all, but most. Their prices are way high. I am all for supporting business, but not when they are charging some of the highest prices in the country. I think the 95% of the people who go into the shop without looking around online to make an informed decision make up for the rest of us. I do buy some accessories there though, ie cases, on which prices are not bad. The new firearms I purchased, were orders from local ffl's. The used ones, were in amazing condition via trades with board members, or raiding my brother's safe queens.

I sent in the paperwork to the NRA for setting up a group discount for new memberships and renewals.
