    I've always wanted to go to the Shootist but it's far. Rettings is kind of overpriced and their used handgun selection blows, probably because they send so much of it out of state instead of giving us a chance to buy it.

    Ades can be ok, I've snagged a few good deals from his used guns over the years. Also a plus for OLL people is he is friendly towards them. He doesn't seem to stock many of them though, just ship ins and consignments.

    I'm surprised no one has bought that Valtro detach mag 12ga pump he has had in there, IIRC for $565.

        That thing has been there for months now. Must be the horrible OD Green rattle can crappy job the owner did on it.

        Tough call ... $565 for a 12ga PUMP or $530 for a Siaga 12. My saiga is coming in next weeks shipments

          I do and I used to have an Agent and I stupidly passed another at sub $300 recently but I'm trying to stay away from most Colt revolvers due to quirky actions no one really understands how to fix.

          How come?

            Never looked at it close to see that the OD finish is a home job. I recently passed one in same price range with 6 mags. It is sort of dark in Ades. It seems that is a problem in other gunshops.

              6 mags would make it worth it because I'd sell 5 of them and then resell it with 1 mag.

                  I'd really appreciate that. Thanks!
