    Fun little rifles but I took mine apart to clean it and it took me a full weekend to get the thing back together again and working properly.

    ya Iv noticed that my local pawn shops check gb out list most of their guns for what they list on gb this is fine on some of the guns but some bring more on gb because of more views from customers iv seen guns set for months and months with no takers, the only good thing is iv know the owners for 25yrs so I can still get teh deals just got to wait a month or two [}:)][:D]

    I just took one in on pawn for 60 bucks. If it comes out I plan on keeping it. It is about 90%. Don't you just hate it.

    got to be in the right place at the right time, im sure this pawn shop only allowed about 75-100 bucks on it, but what are you to do.

    just like car parts i do find some high $$$ items for just a few bucks and then resell them for big bucks.

    Make darn sure that you have a plan to have the money to pick it back up. If you want to sell it then do not take it to a pawn shop. The point is to buy as cheap as possible and make as much as possible. Sometime it can really work in the favor of the pawnbroker and sometimes it works for the customer. It really depends on what the customer has and how bad the pawn broker wants it. Me personally, I would rather work with the customer so he can get his stuff back reguardless of how bad I may want their firearm for my personal collection. It builds good will between the customer and the pawnbroker. I have even tried to buy items from the customer that just want to pawn it and their statement is NO Not right now. However, when they are ready to sell generally I am the first guy that they give the oppurnity too. Most of the time we come to an agreement.

    I'm not a fan of pawn shops to be honest. The ones around here charge more for a used gun then for a brand new one. [:(][xx(]

    those r the guns you do not buy [:)]. the pawn shop owner likes them more and has a price on them so they wont sell.[:(]
