pawn shops and firearms-thanks

Thanks to everyone that responded to that post and anyone who may have wanted to, I see it ran over 10. Bought a DPMS sweet 16 about 7 months from a dealer not far from me. Which I see I paid about 150- 200$ too much for now. [:(] It was my first and I didn't think prices would come back down this fast for now, anyway I have it. [:)] He advertises here and I ask him later if he would do a consignment deal.This was a 32 mag Bisley that I was offered 200$ trade in at another dealer who advertises here but would not do consignments. Too much bother. Maybe he figures he makes more faster on trades. It sold here for 525$ I was happy and ended up buying a Rock Island 45 from him anyway. Thanks! Dave -- I gotta go look[:D]
