What was weird is that some guns were going for below market value, some way below and others were going for way more than MSRP. It was obvious that most of the bidders had NO idea of the price/value of what they were bidding on.

An LGS going out of business, in this climate? That's kind of sad, but good for you!

Great deal!
What is BNIB? Black New In Box?

I'm gonna go with Brand New In Box but it's just a stab in the dark and I got nothing to back it up with.

I changed my mind, I like this one more better.

Normally don't go for Blondes.
Fall for brunettes usually.
But I do have a thing for Stainless guns :cool:

Spent close to full MSRP on my MK40 Elite.
But it's a keeper :D

Yes in this climate LGS stores closing! Since the election business at the store I work at has dropped 50%. Nobody is in a hurry to buy now that Trump is in office. I am sure if the election went the other way there would be a line every morning!

I went to one today, and spotted something intriguing - a Charter Arms .22LR 4" revolver. Kinda liked it. However, the price tag had it $40 OVER MSRP. I asked if that was flexible and he said not very much.

Maybe they don't quite get that supply and demand thing.

But I'd call this a lull. The War on Trump is just ramping up.

Same SLOW down in my area. LGS's without a range are hurting right now. Even Silencerco is laying off staff as folks are waiting on the HPA to pass.
