Just out of curiousity what is the average mark up on a non custom handgun? Does it vary significantly from maufacturer to manufacturer?

When I used to buy guns from Turner's, they showed me their spreadsheet with both retail prices, and their cost. The difference in price on the handguns I looked at wasn't much. Overall, I think the profit margin on guns is slim, and stores make their real money in ammo, holsters, and other gun-related stuff that we buy. -
The reason why I'm asking is that I want to trade in an unfired gun and kinda want to know what my bargaining power is.Comment

Always sell it on here rather than trade it in to a gun store- you can virtually always do better via PPT for yourself, and save a fellow shooter a few bucks.

"Most people understand that guns deter criminals. If a killer were stalking your family, would you feel safer putting a sign out front announcing, "This Home Is a Gun-Free Zone"? But that is what the Westroads Mall did" (in Omaha, Neb).

It really depends on the manufacturer. I make less than 10% on most high end guns. I think I get about 20% on a glock.
If you want a specific # for wholesale value, pm me with specifics. I'll look up nearly any firearms still available on the wholsale market.Comment
