I had a idea,,,, do you think it would work?
lets say you were going to purchase a new firearm, and it was one for which shells were hard to find
example: Here in NYS , you can buy all the 30-30 lever guns you want,, but shelves have few shells if any on them
So,, not at Waldomart,, but say your LGS,, and I do hope you DO buy from yur Local Gun Store when the price is anywhere within shouting distance of Wallysmarts price.
what if you said,, Clyde,, I really want this rifle, but I am concerned I cannot get enough ammo to break it in, and sharpen my eye,, and also go hunting over the next few years.... if you could find me a case of shells , I would be whippin out my wallet before the week is out.
I figure if $200 or more profit , plus the profit on the shells , was riding,, Clyde might make some calls ,even if his distributor was out..heck, he might get a couple boxes from a competitor, or even try to buy or trade for some back from another customer he knows to be a hoarder
is this a good plan,, do you think a Clyde would see it as good business ?
or is he makin so much selling ARs and Glocks that he would not want to go to the trouble..
or would it maybe not work on a $500 to $700 rifle, but might it on a pricier one ?
