Only problem with Cheaper Than Dirt is they think their dirt is gold dust. Great place to visit and drool, but my checkbook is not happy if I shop there. Neither is my wife.

Bro. Luke,

Is Buds Gunshop better? Or is cheaper than dirt good when shopping online?

[LukeD]

Honestly, I use gunbroker or gunsamerica if I buy online. I've even used impact guns because they were having some great deals on Sig rifles. I've only been to the actual cheaper than dirt store. They have a weird set up. The cheaper than dirt store and online/catalogue department are in the same building, but actually two different companies. Never bought from Buds, but heard it was a decent place. Ebang is another site that is helpful if shopping online.

Lmao, no brother i dont carry it cocked,but i do carry it woth th safety off.

Make sure if you order online that you have an FFL on your end the receive the shipment. Many FFLs around here refuse shipments from Cheaper than dirt and Buds.

I've bought one revolver from Buds. No problems w/ my FFL as they are listed
on Buds web page as one they already have an FFL copy on file.

 

[choppersteve03]

[LukeD]

Federal Firearms License.

Not even close. A FFL is what you have to have to be a gun dealer. You get it from BATF. Take a lot of money with you when you apply. :-(

 

[choppersteve03]

Bmmer,how much for one. Ballpak

 

[Bill Lins]

IIRC, about 3k/year.

 

[choppersteve03]

Yooowch!

 

[Beathard]

A type 1 FFL is only $200 for 3 years. The more expensive ones are for explosives and continued firearms (eg machine guns)

I should have mine in a couple of weeks.

 

[LukeD]

Type 1, or the class 3 license? I hear than can get very expensive and complicated.

 

[Bill Lins]

OK- I looked at the wrong line.

Type 1. I had to get it to do engraving and gunsmith work. I can also sell "normal" firearms only $200. Have to live in an area that allows for it in your zoning.

 

[LukeD]

That is sweet. You can prob pick them up at cost then. Although I'm not a huge Kel Tec fan, I've been waiting over a year for the PMR 30 chambered in 22mag. 30 rounds in one mag of those little firecrackers. It was an ordeal getting it transferred from TX to MS.
