it's not really financially worthwhile in Maryland to buy readily
available pistols on line because the local FFLs add about $75 for their

Gee I thought everyone was saying this was "a few dollars". The truth
finally comes out ... as it always does eventually.



The state's fees are small, but most FFLs are making money off the
processing.

A distinction without a difference to the buyer.


Well, it encourages one to buy pistols from an in-state dealer, and then
all you pay is the small state processing fee. When I bought my last
pistol, it cost me $10 more in total than buying from the lowest cost
out of state on line dealer.


Sounds like Tim hadn't shown you the Slickguns site yet. I've not found a gun locally that I
couldn't save a bundle on by buying online - except for the Mosin Nagant. But, that was before Tim
clued me in.


I'm aware of the "Slickguns" site. It shows a Ruger Mark III 512, the
model I have, at $340. I paid $349.99 at a local dealer's, and no FFL
fees or shipping. I did pay 6% sales tax.

Oh, add to that in separate transactions about $100 for upgrade pieces
and parts and $90 for barrel threading, cap, and relocating front sight.
No FFLs involved.


Gosh, which dealer was that, Harry?
