I've heard those are done.


That changes the scenario on a price match though. Price matching local competitors is one thing, price matching every shop in the nation that you can get a gun shipped in from is another.

Side question regarding out-of-state sales:

I understand the hassle of going through an FFL, and getting it shipped. I know you're one of the cheaper FFL transfer options, most are going to cost more than you charge. Plus, there's generally the cost of shipping (a few places do keep it cheap, most don't).

About what level of discount is it worthwhile to buy out of state and transfer, vs buy local? And would the local dealer prefer the option of matching and selling his own inventory (if he has one), vs doing the transfer, if it's the same price to the buyer?

I asked because awhile ago I think I used you (I think I know who you are) to transfer an entry level AR (S&W), not realizing you could likely have matched that. In a perfect world I would like the same rifle at the same price, but would have my payment go to a local guy instead of the bulk going out of state.
