    Well that is the whole chail store mission statement isn't it? Reduce proces at the expense of service.

    Was I out of line?

    You guys see the episode of hardcore pawn where the owner was trying to buy a boatload of handguns for his staff. Something like a $5000 sale of misc handguns of whatever his employees wanted and the dealer went berserk because he though the guy was trying to get him to come down on the total...

    Was I out of line?

    We did exactly the same thing years ago. It seemed like anything we mailed by leaving it in our mialbox never got where it was suppoesd yo go. You live in 75182? :)

    Was I out of line?

    I look at it like this. The gun shop has to make money to stay in bussiness, but It doesn't take many trips into the shop to figure out if they are high profit low volume, or low profit high volume. I avoid the former like the plague. I have been in a shop numerous times and have seen them...

    M&P 340 owners ...

    I struggled with the same question and I just bought a 340MP this afternoon myself. It came with the tritium front site and the crimson trace grips. It had left the store and come back without ever being fired. The story is that a guy bought it for his wife and the trigger pull was too much...

    Man's Best Friend . . . show me yours!

    When I first read this I though you wanted pictures or Dogs. Then I opened it and wasn't sure what you guys were posting. See attached Dogs, just kidding I just thought it was a little rare that a gun forum was so populated with people with non sporting dogs. :) The shorthair bitch on the...

    Down to these two for first gun purchase

    I had to make a choice between 3" 7 shot and 4" 6 shot when the 6 shot was offered to me cheap. I mean new, unfired in the box with the factory warranty card for less than $500. I actually think I like the 4" barrel better and not sure I will ever miss the 7th shot. 4"

    M&P 340 J frame and 200 grain hard cast .357 magnum loads?

    Even monster loads in a an old style Ruger Vaqureo will loosen it some over time. You load whatever you want and give it a try and if it works for you keep doing it. But if you pratice with a hot load you should expect to shorten the life of any firearm. Don't pay any attention to all the too...

    What to buy browning hi power vs. 686 vs. G19

    Heck I'm still having trouble with the first sentance. Did he say he sold a 1911? What's up with that? Bronwning HP is a misnomer, nothing HP about it. Love the gun fun to shoot, but 9mm? If some one gave me a glock I would tape a quater to it and throw it away so that when the garbage...
