CZ SP01 you can get it for 650 after taxes and Dros at retail. http://www.ocguns.com/product/cz-usa-75b-9mm/ You still gotta pay for dros on his firearms. There is no justification why his firearm costs almost 100 more, compared new to new. I mean he did start a thread a year ago that CZ guns are going to be banned or something, that's the only false justification I see. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk |

Now the OLL build, that is hard to price because there are a vast amount of decently built parts and accessories. But even still a 20 dollar budget China rail is still a cheap China rail. It works, gives the look you want but most know it won’t increase the price over a stock build. Just giving that as an example. Most of us already know |

You've built YOUR dream rifle. Somebody gonna drop that kinda cash probably has their own idea of a dream rifle.

i can honestly say, even living where there is no roster, i can't think of a firearm that i really want right now even the second SIG was just an impulse buy

The problems are that the AR market is pretty much dead right now and the fact is that individual parts normally cost a lot more than a complete item. Have you ever priced all the parts to make a new car? They will typically come out to about 3 times what a complete car sells for new. It's not much different when it comes to custom built firearms.

Gun sales have decline noticeably throughout country. They go up when gun control advocates in power, such as Obama, and decline when control threat eases, such as now. California is a special case because of pro-control Democratic dominance. I would guess that a lot if money is being spent now on ammo, which is cheap now relatively, in anticipation of new controls going into effect next month. Everyone I know has been stocking up.

Whatever you are selling is only worth what someone is willing to pay. Period.
My experience with CG market place is that while some firearms "may" be worth more today compared to what the owner originally paid for them, the reality is that they are worth less. If you really want to sell a firearm, price it to sell. If not, then it will sit and sit and sit a bit longer until you realize that your asking price (for whatever reason) is too high. |

That low price will draw lots of bidders which will run the price right up to what the market supports. I watch many gunbroker auctions end higher than you can buy a specific make/model of gun by simply shopping for the best deal. |

For me, buying a new truck slows things down a bit.
But really nothing i see in FS is what I want...seems that most people are keeping these (what I like), or pricing me out...either way, probably a good thing at this point. P.S. I still like (not board) the guns I own, so GTG. |

I filled up my safes before Trump was elected. Now I’m not looking to buy much here in CA as I am working on moving to TX within the next year. I can’t wait to go to a gun store, slide my card and walk out with gun in hand.
But I still notice ridiculously overpriced handguns and long guns in the marketplace here. Often more than a gun costs new. I could drive over to my LGS and get many guns for less (KSGs seem to be among the worst for this) And that’s not including the insane price gouging that occurs with off-roster guns. There are a few good deals, but very few and far between. Also, So-Cal seems to be having better deals than up my way lately. |

You're the one that has no concept of how the economy works. If you price an item, and nobody offers to buy it, then it's priced too high for the market. If you lower the price then, at some point, someone will buy it.
Sellers set the asking price, buyers set the selling price. "small minded" thinking like yours makes me weep for our education system
