It seems that base price is about reasonable. Then they add 30 in fees plus tax shipping and all that then you can't forget about.nics you end up way over msrp

 

Thoughts? Experiences?

You have to look at the final out the door cost to compare prices. Some dealers do not include the extra fees, even in the final price.

 

Gold Dealers, myself included, have set their prices either on a markup, margin, discount or flat fee. I set my markup to beat any NJ dealer for firearms over $500. The extra fee will include NICS & shipping from AZ to me.

Ok makes little more sense some dealers were charging nics on top

 

Idk the quote I got was like slightly higher doesn't seem worth the hassle if its a gun you can find locally

Maybe I didn't explain it correctly. Slightly higher than what? Davidson's, Gallery of Guns, and The Gun Genie are all the same distributor. One of the main ones that dealers get their firearms from. So that IS your price.

I am on phone so typing out my hypo purchase would be a pita.

 

I appreciate the help ill do little more looking when I get.home I think it could have its uses but for a common firearm don't think its worth the extra steps

I've used them before and the price was better than the one I found at the store I was picking it up from. All the fees were included in the price and that was the amount I payed. So all I had to do is just stop by, fill in the paperwork and pick up the gun.

Overall pleased with the service.

Good to know I may try service depending on what I'm looking for in the future

I would recommend them. I used them a few months ago for my first firearm purchase, a Ruger SR9. The gun was at my FFL in a couple of days. No hassle.

The extra fees that are quoted from the local dealers are just the NICS fees, I believe. So consider that when looking at the final price. That will be your total cost for the firearm out the door. Gun, taxes and NICS.

 

They also provide a thorough lifetime guarantee on top of the manufacturers warranty. They will replace your gun even if the manufacturer doesn't cover it.

 

From the website:

 

"At Davidson's, your satisfaction is our commitment. In fact, our commitment is so strong, that we have put together the only GuaranteeDSM Lifetime Replacement Warranty available in the firearms industry.

 

It works like this......

 

If anything ever goes wrong with any gun you buy with the Davidson's GuaranteeDSM Lifetime Replacement Warranty, it will be replaced. If no replacement is available, it will be repaired at no charge to you. Simple, just return it to the GuaranteeDSM retailer where you purchased it, pay for the return shipping and upon receipt Davidson's will ship you * BRAND NEW GUN."
