        Canyon Sports overprices their entire inventory. I talked them down from $1800 to $1450 on a gun recently. They love it when folks come in and pay full price.

            I don't buy at gun stores (they never have the OLL stuff I want). Usually have to buy off GB or Chris at Lanworld etc.

              Don't need to. I get great deals at Bright Spot Pawn. Dont believe me. Walk in and ask for the good guy deal. You'll walk out with a big smile on your face.

                MSRP is for suckers.

                          I hate those guys with a passion. I was simply walking around in the store getting nasty looks from a guy cursing behind the counter.

                            it is difficult to haggle successfully over a pristine w german sig, while saliva is dripping from your mouth and you look like you are going to have a seizure if you don't get THAT gun!!! but a few deep breaths later and possibly a trickle down the leg and OCCASIONALLY a few bucks cheaper or an extra magazine may result from said haggling.... depends on who's buying and who's selling.

                              I just ask politely if the price can be negotiated. Surprisingly, I have gotten some price break occasionally.
