How do you feel about customers with no shopping agenda, that just want to talk shop all day?
>>
>>731022110
Just some personal firearms, but other than that, everything is on the shop floor.

>>731022136
No. Ive been offered extra funds for it before. They get booted from the shop and I forward what info I can to ATF and local PD.

>>731022142
Yes

>>731022201
Shitty polishing jobs, parts attached via JB Weld, garbage optics and grips up the ass, shitty stippiling jobs, holes drilled in places "to save weight" or for "less friction". A bit of everything.
>>
>>731022230
Im not a fan of the political left. I understand there is political push to remove gun rights but that side is fighting a losing battle. Confiscation wont work either since there are so many guns out there that cant be easily traced which is why I love the idea of 80% lowers.
>>
>>731022567
80% lowers? Can you explain?
>>
>>731022242
Im fine with it. I don't mind chatting a bit but once we get a bit busy I have to put my attention to the people looking to buy something. Still I don't ignore the guy just looking around.

>>731022713
An incomplete frame or lower receiver of a firearm that is not able to accept most of the internal parts. You have to make cuts to finish it and is not recognized as a firearm by federal definition.

Basically a professionally started DIY firearm.

>>731023120
I personally think gun ownership is not the issue so much as what you are legally entitled to do with said gun. Im a Canadafag and up here we have a fairly high gun ownership rate but there are rather strict rules as to where and when they can be used. Essentially its either at a gun range or for hunting. There is no open carry or no self defence and guns/ammo must be stored basically in a safe/locker
>>

its illegal to think about guns in Britain.

not op, but freedom ends when your actions infringe upon someone else's. Only a fool would defend this.
>>
>>731023381
I'm from Canada as well, and I respect that opinion. I don't entirely agree with it though, as I came from an alcoholic family where my father threatened to kill everyone in the family almost every night with a gun he purchased for the sole purpose of hunting. The laws clearly cannot stop things like that from happening.
>>
>>731023551
The picture is of a Brirish gun shop... We do have guns, you know...
>>
>>731022971
Its a neat concept but doesnt do well for practical firearms. Im not bothered people make firearms with them but building a glock or an AR from an 80% lower is a bit more practical. They do seem pretty neat for the enthusiast that wants to design their own gun though.

>>731023120
No, but I understand that guns can be easily made by anyone willing to do so. Look up the homemade pipe shotgun and it will go to show how pointless gun control is in practice.

>>731023123
Im sorry if you are incapable of picking up the answer from that.

>>731023251
Any good custom work has come from shops that specialize in it. We get plenty of Wilson Combat and Nighthawks coming through for our high roller customers.

>>731023307
No Its hard to have rights when you're dead. Gun shops are a piss poor place to target when occupied.

>>731023332
No as I have no reason to.

>>731023401
No, the pic is just pulled from google.

>>731023466
My least expensive is a Cobra .380 pistol for $160 and I stock high end rifles and pistols up to about $3000.

How much do you have to spend on a gun / ammo and I can give you a recommendation from there.

>>731023647
And what if he had a knife instead? He could have pulled it off at night without waking everyone else with a gun shot. People who wish to do others harm can and will find a way.

>>731023740
I want to spend around 300 on the firearm and am willing to spend a bit more on ammo as needed
>>
>>731023647
No but he should never have been able to own that gun in the first place. When I took my PAL they went through my past histroy witha fine tooth comb. When my sister got hers she had to get doctors notes stating she wasnt a threat to herself or anybody else because she had issues with depression a number of year prior to applying for it

Did you ever felt threatened?

Also , what's the worst thing a customer did in your store ?
>>

And you have to keep your ass pre lubed because the CRMP now can kick down your door we never they feel like it. Unless you just get a long arm card

CRMP? What in the hell are you even talking about?!
>>
>>731023710
None worth mentioning.
>>
>>731023794
No but we've had shady people obviously up to something as far as stealing our goods.

>>731023862
You can find a Taurus PT-111 G2 or 709 Slim for under $300. Taurus is still a budget brand but not terrible. Look around online for a price within your budget, call your local dealer and ask what they charge for a transfer fee (online orders must be sent to a dealer) and a box of defensive ammo will be between $20-$30 depending on the quality of the hollow point.

Feel free to ask me to clarify anything you may not understand about the process.

>>731023882
If he shouldn't have been able to own it, then something went wrong with your system in regulation firearms. Even then what was to stop him from buying one illegally or making one?

>>731023941
Feel threatened? Not exactly all though we have had people get pissy due to background check failures or the fact i won't sell to them if they smell like weed(still illegal federally therefor if I am under the impression you smoke, I can't legally sell you a gun). They try to act threatening but trained armed staff vs some pissed off prohibited person really are a bad match up.
>>
Brits can buy hunting pistols with extreme limits on what you can do with it, and 3 max capacity shotguns with lesser but still strict limits.

What is your suggestion for a good and affordable 1911?
>>
>>731022474
BAAAADDD idea to sell to blacks man. They killed each other enough with sticks and stones in africa. They don't need guns now too.
>>
>>731022013
Are you an asshole to customers like every single gun shop clerk is to me?
>>
>>731024828
You fail to realize this is an "ask me anything" thread. No dumb-ass question will go unanswered.

>>731024924
Rock Island Armory, American Tactical, or Metro arms. Look into 1911s from any of those brands and pick your favorite and most affordable size and configuration. Disregard Taurus as a 1911 manufacturer.

>>731024985
I sell to people I feel won't do anything stupid with their firearm. If I get a weird vibe from you, you're not getting a gun, skin color need not apply.

>>731025035
No, and that's why the reviews are so great. Every customer gets greeted sincerely, offered assistance, and offered recommendations when they come in looking for a certain type of product. Came in for a holster? Let me show you some of my best sellers. In the market for a firearm? Here's what on sale or here are the used guns if you're looking for a good deal. Even the people I can't sell to I'm polite to up until they do something to make me force them out of the shop.
>>
>>731024649
No regulatory system is 100% perfect ours is no exception. People do slip through the cracks from time to time. As for buying a gun illegally...that would be even more difficult then getting one legally. I have associated with many shady characters in my time and not once have i come across somebody who has either bought or sold guns illegally in Canada. Obviously it happens but you need to know the right people and have a reputation among them. Its not as simple as going to your friendly neibourhood weed dealer and asking if they know where to buy a gun. As for making them, not 100% sure on this but i am fairly certain that you would still need to be licenced to buy parts. Hell you need to show your licence to buy ammo up here
>>
>>731025399
Nice dubs!
Thanks. I have been looking into the Taurus because they were cheap. Didn't know it they were affordable or crap. I like the feel of a 1911. I'm only concerned about the upkeep. More moving parts than a revolver.
>>
>>731025528
Parts for homemade guns are sometimes from commercial guns, but for the most part, the parts are easy to make out of scrap metal and sprigs. Google "homemade gun" and see how creative people get with them. Most people make them just to see if they can or as a project. If anyone wants to hurt someone bad enough, they will find a way simply put.

>>731025757
Taurus is still a budget brand but their 1911's have been piss poor in quality from my experience. Just keep you pistol cleaned and well oiled and it will last you. 1911s have quite a few small parts but aren't horribly complex.
>>
>>731022013
best handgun for $500?
power over accuracy
>>
>>731025956
No argument there, i was more refering to building a custom AR. The parts on their own would be unatainable comercially without a licence. I would have to be steaming mad though to risk a backfire or the receiver blowing up in my face with a fallout 4 esq pipe rifle. Still need ammo though
>>
>>731025399
Okay, serious question then: Are you a card carrying member of the NRA? If so, why? Do you really believe in their supposed gun right M.O.?

what's your recommendation for home defense?

>>731025757
I have my uncles remmington rand that he carried in korea. Its not hard to keep cleaned and oiled. Bit of a learning curve to it but nothing overly complex

>>
>>731026126
Best for what purpose? Not all are created equal.

>>731026247
Ah I see. Im unsure of how the Canadian laws work on assembling your own firearm from available parts. In the US, the lower receiver is considered a firearm and all else can be bought normally.

>>731026278
I am not an NRA member. They are a very okay group. It needs to be better run with more money going to supporting gun rights as opposed to the pockets of the workers. There are several other gun groups I donate to though.
>>731026361
An AR15 in 5.56, a pistol caliber carbine, or a full sized pistol. Shotguns work but are less advantageous than something shorter with more capacity and faster reload time. I personally use a Sig MPX-K or a Beretta 92A1.

>>
>>731026899
I try to be as professional and helpful as possible. I'm also not an ass about transfers like many others are. I get that you can save a bit on the gun by purchasing it online. Turning away transfers from specific sources or transfers altogether is a piss poor business plan. Some shops charge as much as $100 for a transfer where we charge $30

>>731026990
I just find that the money can be used for better things to help gun rights.

Nice, my work applies to newer production firearms but I would love to learn to restore old guns. Unfortunately I don't get the chance to work on classics too often so putting the time into learning wouldn't be the greatest idea at this time.

Basically every part of a gun is treated the same up here, the only thing i am not 100% on is the stock. I had to get a replacement magazine for one of my pistols and the shit i went through to get it was stupid. Had to drive over 4 hours to a gun shop that had them in stock but becuase i forgot my PAL at home they wouldnt sell it to me so i had to drive back and do it all over again the next weekend
>>
>>731027303
London's best Purdy SxS probably the nicest Ive worked on.
Had some Spanish double guns come in completely rusted out that took a lot of love to get back to working. Lots of small scroll engraving and color case hardened stuff.
Having to polish off rusted color case hardened colors is a heart breaker, nitre blued parts I can re nitre and make look like new again though.
Do ink and varnish jobs on a lot of cleaning tickets where I reink engraving and varnish coat it so old stuff that's been used a lot bit taken care of looks new.
Lot of stock repair, and stock work too.
>>
The high end guns, Purdy, Holland & Holland, Rigby, Boss, etc, are mirror polished on the inside. It's pretty neat, you work on so many "normal" guns, blueprint a bolt gun, build a 1911, time a single action revolver..... And all these modern guns look like shit on the end side, tool marks and scrapes and all that. You pull the side plates on a nice gun and all the internals are a matching mirror Polish, no marks, just perfect, it's crazy.
But the screws are so tight on them you hear an audible pop when they finally break and turn, super thin and shallow screw cuts as well, have to grind your own drivers for each gun

It's super easy to make a firearm.

They arrested an ex con in Baltimore City a couple years back because it was standing on the street corner in south baltimore every single day with one of those big super soakers. Cops drove by him and were like "huh...don't you think that's weird?" then left. Did that for a few days and then just started eyeballing him. Eventually found a reason to stop and check him out and he had made the super soaker into a shotgun with parts exclusively from home depot (aside from a shotgun shell) and was holding territory for a gang by standing on the corner with it.

He was a multiple felon, and it's illegal to have a gun in the city. Pretty much for any reason.

Moral of the story...you don't need anything fancy kill people.

>>731031332
It's been years since that story was in the news here. I'd never find it. Google for like 'super soaker zip gun' and you'll get a billion articles. It happens all the time.

It's easier to user a pre-build 'trigger' mechanisim like what's in those I'd imagine. For a shotgun, all you need is like, the trigger assembly (which in a super soaker is already built for you), a piece of pretty decent pipe (home depot), a nail (home depot), spring or something like a spring (home depot), and some cheap cutting tools (home depot).

You only get 1 shot but then that's all you need when you have a shotgun shell and the other guy has NO GUNS.

Short barrel shotgun and short barrel rifle laws need to be ditched. It doesnt make sense that you can have a full sized AR or a compact AR pistol, but having the pistol with a stock is a felony without the proper paperwork and several month wait time for clearance.

Drop suppressors from the NFA as well

CPL/CHL/etc should apply to all states just like a driver license.

Bans on certain firearms in certain states is ridiculous

>>731031869
Upset, no. Some shops will give you a hard time if you call a magazine a clip or misname anything else. Just let them know you are a first time gun owner and hope for the best. beware H&K is over priced, and don't buy anything too cheap since you do get what you pay for. If you want good quality for the price, Ruger has plenty of firearms to choose from.

Just google that shit.

Technically in the AR platform (m4, m16, ar10, ar15, ar16, etc.) the *only* thing that's actually a firearm is pic related. An 80% lower is one of these but without the part that holds the trigger assembly milled out and a couple of holes drilled. Since it requires that much work, it's not technically a firearm so it can be sold without any background checks to anyone.

On that note, how do you feel about air rifles, not the 700 fps bb guns, the 50 cal air rifle for large game hunting not being regulated by the government?

As a britfag im very much on the fence regarding gun laws. On the one hand i love that we don't really have gun problems here, London excluded ofcourse.

A full sized 9mm pistol, an AR chambered in 5.56, or a 9mm carbine. Great for defense and inexpensive to shoot bidirectionally.

>>731032370
Air guns have their place in recreation and small game hunting. I target shoot with my Benjamin NP Trail .177 from time to time and when I can't make it to the range but just want some trigger time, i shoot cans with my red ryder. Your property is not the governments business.

>>731032511
Know that bad people will do bad things if they are so inclined. A citizen should be able to protect themselves by any means necessary. There is a similar problem in rural areas here in the US. Police are spread so far and thin that you can expect a 30 minute response time.

Put it this way. Lets say a violent individual is kicking down your door and police will respond in 60 seconds should you call them...what are you going to do to protect yourself in those 60 seconds while you wait for help? Now apply realistic response time.

I looked on the roster. Its not there. I'd have to find it used in California somehow. Fuck.

look for rebates. S&W have them from time to time. much better quality than taurus, and with rebate in the same price range

Just to shoot some targets at the range

What state is your shop in?
>>
>>731033823
Any other nice gun you can think of with a magazine disconnect that is just as cheap?

Also, I think new ones need microstamping, but that's not fully implemented yet.

If someone came into your shop with an axe/knife/spoon (or several) and killed everyone and brutally injured you, would you defend their right to do so

Anyone is free to answer this, but 80% lowers seem to function on the thought of "a block of metal wouldn't be a fire arm, a slightly milled block of metal still isn't a firearm, a even more milled block of metal still isn't a firearm," what's the line with these between "firearm" and "not firearm"?

>No Its hard to have rights when you're dead. Gun shops are a piss poor place to target when occupied.

Glock 42 will be cheaper to shoot but if you want to go less expensive, get a larger glock in 9mm. No reason to stick to a sub compact just for range use unless thats what fits your hand best.

Cali I take it? Micro stampin is not possible in production firearms...kind of a defacto ban. If you need something inexpensive with a mag disconnect, check out the Bersa thunder.

Do you personally want a mag disconnect or does cali require it for new roster guns?
>>
>>731035718
Fucking state requirement to be on the list of "Not Unsafe" handguns, I believe.
>>
>>731023647
laws do not stop anything from happening, they just try and deal with shit after it occurs. Murder is illegal, yet it still happens. if that doesnt clue you in to the idiocy of making it illegal to harm someone with a firearm when harming someone is already illegal then you are a liberal.

They should have issued you a denial pamphlet with your NICS Transaction Number which also provides a link to submit your appeal.

>>731035058
It cannot readily accept a fire control group thus is not a firearm

>>731035226
exactly my thought. I just got too laze to link anything.

Got a link to the list? I can pick a nice one for you from there.

>>731035718
>Bersa thunder.
This is the only Bersa on the list: Firestorm 380 / 4140 Steel; Alloy

you must be too young to remember when Canada was still a free country, every pickup had a gun rack in the rear window etc etc. around 1990 or so the draconian shit we have now was implemented. I lost my FN L1A1, AKs were confiscated etc etc

Glock 19, 17
beretta 92
S&W SD9
XD9

None are super expensive and cheap to shoot

can you fuck something up when cleaning a gun? Like parts not being put back together properly?

>>731035969
When is the best time to purchase a firearm? Do gun shops ever have sales?

Also i have $450 to spend on a carry gun and im stuck between the newest LCP 9? And a M&P Shield. I feel like the shield is too tall, and a tad more wide than an LCP for just 1 exra more round. But i really rather have the one extra pew.

Are there any other CC handguns i shoukd be looking into? It has to be 9mil
>>
>>731023466
Not op, I work at a pawn shop that has ffl, weve sold handguns (used hipoints) for around 100 flat, even as low as 120 for their 45 ACP model. Hell I sold a single shot 12 gauge in rough shape for $70 a few weeks ago.. low prices and even room to negotiate, it's definitely the place to get a cheap gun.

Off topic, it's usually niggers that buy the cheap shitty handguns, but there's also plenty that stick to respectable models as well.

>>731036280
I'm pretty familiar with them. All full size and well over $400-$500. Fuck California. I've heard the indian reservations might start selling non-california legal firearms.

this guy walks in. what do?
>>
>>731036399
Improper assembly can damage parts, bust it all depends on the particular firearm.

>>731036404
Now since it is a buyer's market. Plenty of shop and online sales going on as of lately.
The shield 9 gives 2 extra pews unless you use the flush fit magazine. Bear in mind the LCP will be snappy as hell due to the size.

The XDS is also a decent option as well as the Glock 43 if you dont mind 6 rounds. If you can go with a .380 I would recommend a Glock 42 which has little to no recoil.

>>731036647
I.O. makes one in that price range but you will regret getting it due to poor quality control. Save your money and get something decent. Lowest you should go is a WASR in ters of quality. AKs are only getting more expensive due to import cuts and restrictions.

I bought a RIA 1911 9mm a couple years ago. Recently I purchased a couple boxes of +P. Haven't used them because it's more than a dollar a bullet, but I was reading that there's the potential for catastrophic failure with the use of this ammo?

Do you have any knowledge about this?

Pic related is the pistol, disregard my cat.
>>
>>731037326
I don't know much about 1911's, but +P is perfectly safe to shoot in most guns. Handloaded +P+ rounds, maybe not so much.
>>
>>731037600
Alright, thank you.
>>
>>731037326
read the manual and see if it is covered under their warranty

>>731022013
Do you stock "Zombie Killer" branded ammo? That stuff always gives me a laugh when I see it.

Continuing off that point, do you stock anything you personally consider stupid/unneeded, but sells really well?
>>
Can I get a C&C with a DUI on my record?
>>
>>731022013
do you ship overseas?

>>731039413
I don't stock the Z-Max or any other zombie stuff, but people eat RIP rounds like hotcakes

>>731039592
As long as it was not a felony or would have held a charge of 1 or more years in prison.

>>731039787
No, I do not import or export.

It's a buyers market right now. With the fear of guns being taken away diminished with Trump in office; great deals can be found. Ironically the weapons industry got it in the ass without baseline now the the Republicans are in control.

BUT It's is an awesome time to be a gun enthusiast.
