So i planned to wait to buy my rifle. Well my insurance company is finishin my settlement for my car wreck. So ya im buyin a few guns
Plan is a dpms ar in 308 a glock 21 cause i miss my 45.
So im in granby Colorado and i dont know where to go. So id like some recommendations on a good gun store i go to denver alot and wouldnt mind a drive for a good deal. Figure ill get a good deal buyin both at once. I bought two glocks few years ago and got 100 off each
So basically denver up to grand lake im not far from steam boat springs and will be going to Colorado springs in a few weeks anywhere around there

You said you wouldn't mind a bit of a drive: Great Outdoors Gunshop Atwood, KS, not too far across the CO/KS border. Pretty good group of guys, Class II dealer, lots of cool stuff in their shop that's outside of 'normal'.

I have used this route for new rifles and have been happy with the results. However, I always have to personally examine anything that is used and will not buy online for them. Have a look at CDNN, Davidson's, Bud's, Lipsey's, etc.

I thought bout the out state tags but between buyin a rifle scope and then the 500 bucks for tags i couldnt afford it plus this give me a chance to scout and find a good hunting loc
Im leaning toward the buy online idea. There is a gun shop here in town but by the looks of it prob not gonna be able to get a deal there but they might do the transfer

I have bought my last 3 guns online. Found a guy that does transfers for $20. I don't think I'd ever buy one any other way now. I have no qualms about going to Gander, Cabelas, or Bass Pro and asking to handle a rifle I intend to buy online as I spend enough money at those places on other stuff just about every time I walk through their doors.

I agree. I went to the local gun shop by my old town. When i told the guy i found it online cheaper he all but ripped the rifle from me. When i went to the other shop i told him i found it online 100 off with shipping he said he couldnt help me with the gun but spent an hour talkin to me and i ended up buyin my sabots black powder and cleaning stuff for said muzzleloader and i ended being a return customer for him
Iv got a non hunting related project goin on. The local shop i use for that is alittle higher but the guy will spend hours helpin and explaining stuff to me so i pay little more for the help now im getting discounts and freebes cause he knows im loyal
