    Post American Guns and the prices they charge, WOW!!!

    Watched the newest episode last night and was astounded at, (if real) the prices people will pay.

    They sold this guy a Mossberg MVP in .223 (cut the barrel to 16", did some lazer engraving on the stock, rebedded the action and did an action and trigger job and added a Leupold scope) and a S&W Governor that they radiused the trigger on, did an action job and engraved the cylinder on. On the show it only took like two days so not a huge amount of manhours.

    The MVP last sold on Bud's Guns for right at $500. The Leupold, not sure what model but let's say $1000. The S&W Governor is listed at $799.00 shipped. American Guns probably paid less then those prices as a retail FFL. I'm estimating maybe $2,300 total for both guns and the scope.







    They charged the guy $10,000

    I sure didn't see $7000 + worth of work on either firearm.

    This is like the second episode I've seen where the price of a (minor to moderately customized firearm) was what I would consider through the roof. Anyone else think their prices are outrageous?


    P.S. I've also yet to see them offer a fair value on a trade-in firearm. Seems like they lowball everyone.

    None of the prices on that show are based on reality.
    He sells indvidual guns for thousands over any real price, and buys machineguns and others for several thousands less than average price.

    Another thing that the owner does is to throw in a bar of silver into the deal when trying to buy guns. He will drop a 10oz bar of silver like its worth thousands of dollars.

    I watch the show to see his daughters ass.

    I refuse to watch that or the sons of guns. I feel both shows are dangerous to my IQ...

    A buddy of mine has bought several guns from these guys - prior to the TV show. He got a good deal on each. He dealt with Rich and said he was "hard to take"... Really full of himself.

    I watched one episode of that while I was out of town. The entire time the jail bait daughter was ever on the screen she carried around a dog in a purse. I have never hit a woman but after seeing that I wanted to beat this girl. I wanted to hit her daily for being such a cunt.

    But that is just me...

    I totally understand. Paris Hilton poser. People who revel in the spotlight are a turnoff to me in general.

    there ar custom shops around here that get 100$+ per hour for gun work. it would be easy to ratchet up ten grand doing engraving and detail work liek that.

    american guns is just another douchesq "reality" TV show that happens to include guns.

    I can't get over her head/neck ratio. I like a long, slender neck on a girl but her's is just freaky.

    If her bio is accurate, Paige Wyatt is only 17.
    After today, it's all historical.
