Sorry that you had a bad experience there. I dont know all of the employees, just one or two. There are always going to be blowhard "operators" at gun stores. Lol. Keep an eye out on here for Coye knives and they only go for a couple hundred here. Good luck man
Agreed. I'm not dissing 2A, as I do like their range. Although I've twice wanted to rent full-autos there and been unable, as they don't have the staff. And I know the tendency for people who work behind a guncounter all day and talk guns and weapons all day can be to begin to think they know alot more than they actually may. A feeling of grandiosity and self-importance often follows.
Again, I like 2A.
I've seen a Ridgeback or two on here for sale in the last year or two, usually in the $200-300 range, I believe. You can also search completed auctions on Ebay (haven't looked at Gunbroker) and see they sell for way way under $1000 routinely. I saw a few in the $500 range, and a few in the $75-200 range.
