I understand. I posted this mostly because people generally don't expect this kind of thing in a small town in the poorest State in the country.

I cant afford restaurants with 5 dollar symbols I'm sure the same it true for gun shops.

They have a few low dollar guns also. Handguns mostly, but also others. Their bread and butter is the high end collector market tho.

Steve used to be a regular seller at the Atlanta Trade Center gun shows years ago before he moved to Mississippi and always had fine firearms. Great to hear that he is still in the game.

Sorry to report it, but Steve passed away from cancer about 4 years ago. His son-in-law took over the business.

Just out of curiosity...
When you go to the grocery store, do you get to the checkout and ask what's your best price on this can of peas?
Do you call the electric company and ask them to give you their best rates?
Do you negotiate at the gas station or the local diner?
Then why does everybody feel the need to ask the local gun shop to give them a better deal?
He has bills to pay too.

For me personally, I only haggle on used guns.

When the shop buys used guns, they dicker on what they'll pay as the gun comes into their shop.

So… I figure that it's OK to haggle on what I'll pay as the gun leaves their shop.

Both the shop and I are looking for the best price possible.

I have found the occasional used gun that is priced at what seems to me a fair price, or even a "bargain." I don't dicker on those guns.

If I don't like the price on a new gun, I simply look elsewhere. I don't believe that I've ever asked for a better price on a new firearm.
