    "Rooster" guns...

    So, I've seen a Glock 43 for over $1000.00, VP9 for over $1000.00, 5-$600.00 SIG pistols for $1500.00+


    Am I the only one that looks at these against "Free-America" priced guns and... ??

    ...I have a couple off Roster guns too that I may sale, and I can understand and appreciate a little mark up...but two to three times the price? Oy...

        I've never heard of this. Are you saying people are marking up pistols that are no longer on the Approved for Purchase Roster? People wouldn't do that, would they?

              I have mostly "off list" guns coming from Texas and then the SSE deal and have sold a few (legally of course since i value my rights) but i don't (IMO) rip off my fellow 2a FAMILY!

              Seeing the glock 43 for a freaking THOUSAND dollars actually made me mad. Yeah yeah... free market.... but in doing so some are giving what should be a united front fighting WITH the help of especially our restricted gun state family instead of ripping some or maybe many new shooters looking to break into the hobby/sport/FAMILY.

              I hate this whole "safe list" crap and some taking advantage of it.

                    You cannot have a free market in firearms when the supply is artificially controlled by the government. That in turn creates a supply shock as seen here.
                    Everyone on Calguns keeps talking about TDS. I never knew we had so many fish keepers!

                    The TDS on my 10gallon tanks 110ppm
                    The TDS on my 29 gallon tank is 150ppm (due to substrate)

                      The "free market" group doesn't understand that "free" applies to the market itself, not being "free to ask any price and free to walk away" - in any closed market one is free not to make a purchase...
