It seems that riflegear is starting to become overcome with greed. They still have not come down from gouging earlier in the year.

That's still cheaper than some of the asking price on a used one in the sales forum.

True. But, those people are just trying to get back the money they blew at riflegear earlier when riflegear was charging 1700 for the trp. LOL

Their prices have always been high or at MSRP. Reason I only do PPT never purchase direct from them. Awesome shop awesome guys but their prices have plenty of room for improvement.


But I found out after a rant Shark saw he told me they do price match local prices with in reason. That's how I got my SA 1911 from them. First and only gun purchase from their shop and they changed the price listed online. Still paid $50 more than local but was still reasonable IMO.

They get their prices more competitive and their shop will be unstoppable. Only down side to RG.

Th funny thing is that riflegear does alot of volume so selling a firearm at a reasonable price should be fairly easy. I mean, the TRP at riflegear is an outrageous $1550 when you can just go down the street and get one for $1350-1400. Riflegear needs to learn that with size you should be able to provide the best prices. WHomever is in charge of sales at riflegear is not very business savy, you need to adjust to current marketplace.

Calguns community should ban together and open up our own store. Provide best prices, and take over the gun market here in OC, LA. I mean, even something like what yzernie has going will destroy competitors.

I was actually browsing their inventory online, they have a lot of stuff. Prices were off-putting though... I might just go in and check them out anyway.

Btw... a 1911 is going to be my next firearm. I was thinking of a S&W 108282, but it fell off roster the other day lol. So my short list got shorter for the 1911s I've been looking at. Sig Railed 1911 or stainless TRP now.

Is the TRP really worth $500+ more than the Sig? From what I've read/seen, the reviews for the Sig are really good, especially for the price. Obviously TRPs also get favorable reviews. The ONLY thing I don't like about the Sig is the lack of skeletonized trigger, but other than that, I don't mind the Sig look to it. TRP looks amazing also.
