>FFL pesters me during transfer of why i didnt buy the gun being transfered from him when his is $140 more and he refuses to haggle

>Gun stores that charge a CC fee on top of the gun (only one locally does this)

>seller refuses to move a gun price after its been on his shelf for over 8 months and he knows its listed insanely high

>pawn shops that act like they have to get gunbroker returns on a gun they paid $70 for

>general disorganization of most gun shops

Mann as in the german word for Man
Licher as "Lissher", with the "ssh" as if you are hushing someone

the word "Mannlicher" comes from the german word "Mannlich", meaning "Manly".
Just take that pronunciation then add "er" on the end.

You american dumbfucks need to learn some proper teutonic german.

old dude works there hates M16s probably because his buddies got smoked using them in nam. thinks the M14 is the only rifle to ever have existed.

>>beat to shit sporterized Kar98 priced as if it was mint condition and taken from the hands of Paul Mauser himself
Anyone who buys milsurp deserves to be overcharged. Milsurp sucks. There's a reason they don't make them anymore.

Shut up you whore k31s are great. Don't bully me.

>i only buy guns for function and not because im interested in them, i just like to be a tacticool mall ninja
please leave, lucas.

>$40 transfer fee
Are you in California or something because that's really shitty. My FFL is $20.

he isnt in california. Its worse here.

>tfw transfer fee in ausfalia is $10 dollarydoos everywhere

I found a local police supply shop that has an FFL and does $25 transfers. There used to be an old timer that worked out a battery shop that did them for $15 but I'm 100% he's dead.

>milsurp sucks

Do you know where you are sonny?

>they actually pay ffl fees over $5

Ffs just go on gunbroker and start scrolling through ffls until you find one that does them for free or sub $10

t. Never paid an ffl fee in my life despite buying guns online regularly

>smallish shop has 10 employees on the floor breathing down your neck and watching your every move. go away you faggots I'm browsing
>Only carries 115grain 9mm
>$40 transfers

At my lgs for the first time in years. Looking at the shotguns and another customer walks in. Obviously a well like regular based on the employees reactions. Walks over to the shotguns where I am and proceeds to point everyone he picks up directly at me. I eventually walked away. How do you become a regular at a gun store without knowing not to fucking sweep people like that.

At the pawn shop I work at we used to do $10 transfers and we were cheapest in area but so many people started using us and being insuffetable cuntd we bumped it to $25 to make them go away and give us more time to do pawn stuff. Didn't work.

>Huntsville TX bros where ya at
Tiny world after all, what gun store is this? I'm currently /nogunz/ but interested in buying a firearm at some point.

NJfag here, transfer fees in my area are between 65-75 USD

>that store with awesome stuff along the walls labeled "NOT FOR SALE"

No one actually fucking uses that language except for irrelevant austrians, germans, and swiss. No one gives a shit, english is better

When shops put "8mm Labelle" on the label

>ask if he can xfer the one off the internet
>sure sonny for $200
>gets mad when i just turn around and leave

My local shops are cheaper than any big box. They price everything as low as the manufacturer will let them. I do my transfers at a shop that only does transfers.

I think all of the things that we find annoying in the gun community can be traced back to boomers/fudds


>Be me, 20 Y/O, babyface so I look younger than that
>Have a great paying job working county EMS, lots of overtime bc 24 hour shifts
>Go to LGS, guy at the counter looks at me kind of skeptically as I walk up, conversation goes like this
>Me: "Hi, I'm looking to get an Arsenal SLR-107."
>Clerk: "Uh-Huh... let me see how much that would be. You know those things aren't cheap right?"
>"Yeah I'm aware."
>"You understand you have to pay one hundred percent up front right?"
>"I'm prepared to do that."

He spent the entire transfaction badgering me like he didn't believe I had money. Boomers can't grasp the fatc that some younger people have actual fucking jobs. I haven't been back since.

That same LGS has been accused of selling reloaded ammunition as factory loads, and the owner is also known to take a payment to order a rifle, then wait months to actually order the rifle and blatantly lie to customers the whole time. There is a customer there who stated he ordered a rifle and never received it, so he called the shop and the owner told him the distributor was out of stock of the rifle he ordered, he called the distributor up and they told him they had 20+ that weren't allocated to anyone.

i was so stoked. the place is a tactical mall ninja store that usually only deals in black plastic so they didn't know they could have easily charged twice as much and kept the profit

I’m planning on leaving this state as soon as I graduate college, but I’m gonna miss my range bros.

Shit doesn't bother me. It's insignificant in my life. If you want to be a dumb fuck, enjoy your status. I don't give a damn.

Big words from an anglo fucktard who can't even make a gun that works.

Dude, seriously think about suicide.

Milsurp used to be a good investment. But now you have people paying $350 at lowest for Mosin-Nagants when they weren't even that good when they came out.

When the owners are really mean and grumpy

Damn..

Milsurps aren't stocks you stupid faggot boomer

Nobody cares unless you're playing Age of Empires. Garand is pronounced in nomenclature like "grand," even though his actual name is "ger-and."\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

Bullets blades and concealment, their prices aren't too bad but I recommend supporting the store since they might stop doing them for free if too many people start taking advantage of them.

>Nearest gun stores are all pawn shops with tons of beater shotguns and indoor ranges with AR-15 DMR kits, even though max range is 25 yards.
>Cheapest Transfer rate in town is $30, older one used to be a class 3 contractor for $5, but they closed
>Pawnshops wanting $300 for a Rustington B8-70 that looks like it was dragged through the Great Salt Lake
>Consignment Counter at ranges are just filled with .40 S&W 3rd Gens for $500+

At least the armslist deals are pretty good every now and again.
