I was hoping someone on here can help me understand the rational in the for sale section of the forum. I have seen guns selling for more then what it would cost to buy it new in store. For example glocks are easy to come by and there are many of them for sale in the marketplace section, but paying $600 plus for a gen 3 glock to me make no sense when you can get on new for $500 plus tax and dros (except for the glock 34 that's always more expensive). I've seen this same practice on Berettas. I understand the mentality when it comes to off roster firearms, they are harder to get so there is a premium on price, but the rest I really don't understand. Is it that most people don't want to order online? Don't want to give their money to stores? Is it to just help out other forum members? Thanks to all who read and post,

As a member here since 2014 have you missed the 10's of other threads started regarding this same subject? I'd suggest starting a thread on over priced .22 next because that never gets old
