New gun prices...
 
Has anyone else noticed the prices on the new guns? Especially the Remingtons an TC's? Geez I seen a Mod 7 CDL at Wal Mart last night and it was over $800....that is completely ridiculous...however the ultimate racket is TC selling single shot rifles for $500-800 bucks...get serious..lol. I love my Remmy's but I am not gonna pay close to a grand for one and I damn sure aint gonna spend that much for a polkstock rifle :D

My local gun store is doing more $$ business in used guns than new. Ammo is going through the roof as well. The price the store pays for ammo has gone up, if I remember right, 3 times in the last year. I know the opwner and he is an honest guy and he told me everything is going overseas. And not all to the troops. The individual piece parts (brass, lead, etc) are going to other countries. He also told me that people tend to buy it in bulk now seeing the price go up like it has.

Not sure what the bigger ripoff is the TC or the Remington ? But hey they have great advertising ..:D

It's everyplace folks. Bottom line is the gas prices effect it all. It takes fuel to transport the goods and the fuel is up to the prices of operating is up, same old circle.

That certainly has a lot to do with it.

Like I said last year when Winchester went out of buisness.

Winchester kept Remington honest.

When Remington was sold, the new owners were only interested in making bigger profits and so the price went up - just as I predicted.

Inflation 2007 was 6.5 percent..you think Remington gave everybody across the board a 30% salary increase or could the fact a bunch of bean counters that couldgive a crap about gunsmight have been involved and just tried to maximize profits?.
