So where they a good investment? No. Where they fun to own and shoot? Yes.
Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry

Re: It’s Wednesday that means Cabelas
This is what is saving my bacon. Bought back in the early 2000’s and shipped direct to my house. No sales tax and I was my own FFL for C&R. I was buying three or four milsurps a month for eight years.
I can remember people making fun of me for buying cheap milsurps. I had a few of these that sold for $250 to $265 in the last month.
Check out how cheap the ammo was. I’ve sold three Winchesters for a loss. The last one was bought in 2017 and I didn’t have a C&R then so I paid full retail and sales tax.

Re: It’s Wednesday that means Cabelas
I would gladly sell to you but with current Washington State Laws you would have to go through an FFL so add a hundred dollars there plus 10% sales tax plus a special anti-gun tax.RetiredSeabee wrote: ↑Wed Mar 31, 2021 8:32 pmGene I truly wish I lived down the street from you.

I had the same thought about those Winny 94’s in 22lr and wmr. Even being in the same state and a 5 hour drive away I convinced myself to behave and not do something “foolish”.RetiredSeabee wrote: ↑Wed Mar 31, 2021 8:32 pmGene I truly wish I lived down the street from you.

Re: It’s Wednesday that means Cabelas
Four years ago you would have given it more thought. We could have met in Moses Lake and completed the sale. My personal safety rules would be not to sell to someone I didn’t know but knowing you here would have been good enough. I would have also required you to have a concealed weapons permit.Hatchdog wrote: ↑Thu Apr 01, 2021 9:49 amI had the same thought about those Winny 94’s in 22lr and wmr.

I have never sold privately to someone I didn’t know or have a permit. Currently I will not do a transfer without going through an FFL. I don’t like the law but I’m not going to break it.

^^^^^^^
When the new transfer law was put in place I was very unhappy about it as it added cost and hassle to selling/buying a firearm. Now that we’re four years in to it I’ve come to terms with it and I am starting to appreciate it. I do understand it won’t do anything to keep guns out of the hands of criminals but as a seller I’m happy that my firearm is going to someone who passed a background check.

Re: It’s Wednesday that means Cabelas
At our VFW meeting last night I talked to the head of the gun department at the old Gander Mountain store.
He is the post commander and a good friend. I said I have some firearms to sell and he agreed to come to our
home and appraise them for the store. If it works out I will sell quite a few. I have inherited from my Father
and Brother and I also have some of my own. Just too many and I'm concerned about new laws coming in.
Convert them to cash now.
