WHY oh why is this store so expensive? I drive around for work and I was on the east end of town a while ago. I had a couple minutes between appointments so I figured I'd check out Gunworld.
I got real excited when I walked in because they have a GREAT selection of firearms. All kinds of shotguns, revolvers, semi auto handguns, quality bullpups and conventional rifles. Whoo doggy it felt like 2019. And then I start looking at prices.
$700 for shield plus?!?!
$40 for 50rnds of CCI Blazer 9mm????
$600 for a Taurus 856???
$700 for a bodyguard 38??
$700 for a gen 3 Glock 19??????!!!!!!!!!
40 DOLLARS FOR PMAGS
I can't believe they're still open. Asked a dude to see an LCR after about 15 minutes of standing there the guy said "6 shots of 357 is a lot of firepower" and I said "It's 5 of .38" and he just laughed while giving me a "sure" look. As if I was completely wrong. Till I opened the cylinder and then he didn't seem as friendly.
I asked how much the FFL transfer was and he said, to my face, with a straight face, "$135". I laughed and he did too, but got damn he wasn't lying!!!!
Do they skip the background check for the elevated prices or something? Is it a front for a for a more clandestine operation? Is it an ATF honeypot? Maybe they have a secret gambling room in the basement.
(obviously not)
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think they just take advantage of lower income, less informed, first time gun owners. And it's disgusting.
