  1. Runco I feel the same way, for me its 90% about the price and 10% reputation. I'm generally skeptical when salesman start talking. I let the numbers do the talking. I started the thread to become a more knowledgeable consumer and feel that has been accomplished.
  2. I've been in the automotive business for almost 15 years now, having worked with various reps from several manufacturers, where the $$ is saved is the tread patterns, which are more noisy and don't wear as well.
  3. [quote name='Runco' timestamp='1353769847' post='850021'] If I was a dealer I would make the claim or fuel the rumor mill the box store ones are special or are of lesser quality. Because i want you to buy from me. Think about it from the manufacturer side. They must be the same, or they would run the risk of alienieting the customers or open themselves up to some liability. [/quote] For example, the name brand tires you buy at costco, Sams or Walmart are not the same as the tires you get at a retailer. They are cheaper and made in special runs so the discount chains can buy in bulk at a cheaper rate.
  4. Thanks, I was hoping there was no difference
  5. Are the guns manufacturers provide to the big box stores like Walmart any different from the ones available at other gun retailers? Specifically in this case are Colts any different? I'm not knowledgable enough to be able to handle the gun and know if anything is off right away. Thanks
  6. very nice John, very nice, i love the scoops in the background! they rock
  7. I missed the first two seasons but got caught up when amc ran every episode back to back before season 3 started and got hooked. I have no idea how things go in the comic but I enjoy finding out. I am glad the guy in prison was able to find him some slippers for evening relaxation lol

  9. Ford can do whatever they want as long as Chevy does it right

  11. thanks metalhead, i have been to your store afew times before and planned on stopping by there on my way back to spring hill, gotta save the best for last you know
  12. Next Saturday i'll be in Clarksville for a family function and wondered if there are any good gun stores worth checking out. I've never been to Clarksville. Thanks
  13. sounds good, bottom line I shouldn't wait to buy or sell
  14. This is my first go around with guns and an election year. My question is when Romney is elected will gun prices stabilize or even drop?
  15. The quilty pleasure side of me would go get a FN Five seveN, the reasonable side would go get a HK P30L
  16. i've really got the Five seveN itch lately myself, does anyone know of an aftermarket detachable scope mount for it?
