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?


Ruger has lots of dealers in Maryland. Shop around, which is what I did.

Do all of them give such a good deal on that Ruger? Is the name of the dealer a secret? Most dealers
will ship a firearm to an FFL holder. I might have to pay postage, but that's it.

So, which dealer was it?


Gee, I don't know what "all" dealers charge. The one I usually use
doesn't do mail order biz. He's an FFL for incomings.

Beyond that, John, while I won't engage in the direct and indirect
name-calling you and several others here seem to enjoy, let me say that
I would render you the same assistance I would a Klansman in full
regalia whose car was tipped over and burning on the side of the
road...with him in it.

Gosh, I can't understand why you won't provide the name of the dealer that gives such fantastic
deals!

I'm looking through this thread and can find no name-calling whatsoever. Why are you changing the
subject?


1. The "deal" isn't as good as your mail order supplier.

2. "No" means *no*


Perhaps Wayne will give you the name of his supplier and you can get one
of those flashy dimpled models. Mine just has a plain barrel, which I
should have back this week, with threads.

One might think that you're worried about a telephone call to the dealer to check on a price.

Surely that couldn't be the case.
