Good Gun Deals This Week

[matthew anderson]

Matt,

Was talking/texting to some boys on here last weekend about your .416 Dumoulin. Aaah, the one that got away. Completely understand listing these local. I generally only sell local for the same reasons—hate shipping and want the buyer to evaluate and be pleased with everything. Good luck with getting them moved.

Salt in the wound, Tommy. It's the one that got away from me too, unfortunately. I'll do it right back to you, It's in your town.

Yeah, not exactly how that went down and kind of ridiculous that I now have to come on here and defend myself.

I'm not usually long winded, so I apologize in advance to any bystanders that get sucked in.

I posted these rifles on Texas Gun Trader first before here for several reasons but mainly because I want guys to be able to see the rifles in person, feel the weight, shoulder them, work the action, feel the trigger, review the work that's been done and if they want it, they can buy it. It's face to face, no FFL fees, no shipping charges/hassle or worrying about shipping damage.

That being said there are down sides, people share it, scammers get a hold of it etc etc. I've got a large quantity people contacting me nonstop, from polite legit interested parties to obnoxious tire kickers and scammers, Oh Lord the scammers. I had a guy try to beat me up on price and then ask me to finance it and then on the other hand I had a long phone conversation about them with a member from here, which was great. Several guys in town have seen them and are trying to get the cash together and several more are scheduled to meet up and look at them.

So, from my perspective, I posted these on texas gun trader in the Houston section and I get a text from a new york number, no introduction, not a "my name is" or "I saw your adds on gun trader or AHF" no good afternoon, nothing. Just a guy asking for the serial numbers to my rifles...

If you do that to any of the guys on here, you're gonna get the same response you got from me.
"Hard Pass"

The rifles are fairly priced and people want them, I've got so many dang texts in my phone, I'll never be able to respond to all of them with 30mins to an hour of my time before they're sold, so I can pick and choose who I want to deal with and I can tell very quickly who that is or isn't.

Like Rodney Carrington said "The ugly girl better have a joke book in her back pocket"

I've been on here for 8 or 9 years and have a good reputation, I'm extremely easy to deal with, I've learned a lot and helped when I could. I've bought, sold and Traded more than I should have and overall made some great buddies on here. We get along and maintain the atmosphere we have on here because of common courtesy and mutual respect.

Just "slow down and you'll have a more harmonious outcome" <----any guesses, it's an easy one.

-Matt

Yep. I did only write that. Seemed like you were a get to business guy. So I tried to get directly to business.

After your response, I proceeded to give you my AH name, Facebook, and even my Texas Master plumbing number. Offered to give you my 817 number. Nada. You didn’t even reply.

I don’t know what more I could have done to alleviate your worries.

It’s alright, seems you’ve made a deal for both. Congratulations on your sale.

Maybe this is a good deal, I'm not really sure. Worth a look if you're interested in a double rifle.

I'd stay away from there, Fellas...

Hedge, I agree 100% . If referring to the Todd 1 post above.

While browsing my local Basss Pro yesterday, I found an Winchester 243 that is Made in New Haven Connecticut with a old Scope on it. Looked as if it has been sitting in the safe all along. Thought I will post should anyone be interested. I think it was priced around 1200.

Seems like a decent deal.

[Whelen]

Other than the notorious shipping problems that have occurred with bass pro/cabelas, this seems like a decent buy.

@Altitude sickness I bought a rifle from there once. It had a 3 day return policy. Of the HUNDREDS of rifles and shotguns I've owned in my life, it was the only one I can recall wanting an immediate refund. It resulted to enduring lengthy email insults and a generally obnoxious seller. I called the late owner of GI and was warned this guy was going to do that to me.

My hurt feelings amount to worth $0.01. I got my refund. I will never recommend someone buy from that seller.

 

[rookhawk]

I was at the Woodbury, MN cabelas a week ago. They had a VERY nice Cooper custom rifle in 17hmr for $2000. If you want a nice varmint rifle and plinker, you wont' find better for cheaper. They forgot to list it online, so its under-advertised.

A buddy of mine that I was shooting prairie dogs with last week had a cooper 17 hmr with him that he was using for shots under 150 yards.. awesome little rifle.. for $2k if it’s in similar condition to his, that’s a steal…
