Ok, after reading a number of your posts you have mentioned marketing about 900 times. Strictly curious; did you actually do any marketing research before sinking the money into R&D. Like a feasibility analysis perhaps? If so, what kind of money/market are we looking at here? Again, it...

Jon_in_wv, there have been numerous studies that prove what you have just said. Black markets are efficient at getting illegal products to users (kinda their job ya know) government entities are extremely inefficient at stopping free enterprise (communism?). I would be willing to bet that very...

Seeing as how I am constantly buying, selling, and trading firearms (looked down upon on this particular board, but hey, the truth is the truth!), I avoid AI cartridges like my ex-wife. There is a fella on a local gun trading board I frequent that has been hawking a savage .270 AI for months...

When I think of America's gun, I like to think of a gun that is distinctively American... So it has to be BIG, loud, over-the-top, and most of all, proud! The first gun that comes to mind is the 1911. Designed in America, made in the USA, has a barrel too long, and a bullet too fat (sound...

Let me guess, he also told you he swabs the magazine with a disinfecting agent? This is a scene from the movie "The Town."

All the replies are appreciated! I had mulled over inventorying everything, but not to the extent of which you guys are talking about. I definitely see the use off detailed records. (Cover both me and the family.) I guess I will inventory, then gunbroker them all 2 or three at a time. I...

I need opinions on how to liquidate a large collection of firearms. Here's the back story. My sister's father-in-law has been having serious health complications as of late. This gentleman has the largest private firearms collection I have ever personally seen. It takes up a full room of...

Great job on the savage, I love those things. I do that same thing all the time. My drug of choice is the Mossberg 500, or subsequent store brands (new haven 600at, etc.). I can pick those things up in fine mechanical condition for $100 - $150. Take some steel wool and gun oil to it, maybe...

IN an attempt to get this thread on track... You cant make a purchase until you fondle a Remington Spartan. (Story Incoming) Me and the shooting buddies decided that the best practice for our home defense guns was bustin' some clays. We all showed up with our 18.5in pump guns. We were...

You need to be sure to hit what your aiming at :) I heard a story that my grandpa was fishing in a navigation channel of the Arkansas river (not exactly deep sea, but scary enough.) He pulled up a 5ft alligator gar. If you have ever seen one at an aquarium, they are lazy, if you ever see one...

Wonder if they were having berettasticks? (get it? Like breadsticks... No one? .... Tough crowd.) But seriously, when is Hoppes gonna introduce their new pizza sauce, guaranteed no failure to feed! Ba dum pshhh!

Because of the hostility of the posts, I will preface mine by saying I have a BBA-Marketing, currently pursuing an MBA. I won't use any of that in the next few lines. You have already stated your current market, and target market is poor/small town. Poor people generally buy according to 1...

To me legend and cult are rarely the same thing. A legend is a gun that has forever changed the way we do things. It will be recognized for the rest of time. A few that come to mind: '94 Winchester 1911 Browning M2 (really? No one has mentioned this?) Colt SAA AK-47 Glock (like it or not...

Bizstats.com (not my site) My New Venture Creation professor swore by it. I kinda have to take him seriously seeing as how he is the head of small business research and development for my university. You may not find your exact industry, but you can usually use logic/common sense and poke...

I'm a college kid ($0 in the checking account was a regular occurance.) I survived with a Hi-Point carbine, Maverick 88, and Rossi .357 for over a year. It was rough... Now that I have a decent paying internship... not anymore :D

I had almost the same experience literally 3 days ago. Walk in to FedEx, set my package down that is addressed, sealed, and ready to have a sticker thrown on it and ride out the door. I say: "Law requires me to tell you this is a handgun." Kid behind the counter looks like he doesn't...

I have owned a Kel Tev SU16 CA... The thing is fricken light, it's also not super accurate, but for $450 with optics out the door, I'm gonna be more apt to haul it into the woods than an $1800 "Katana" I have a Bushmaster Carbon-15 with the "factory sent" Bushnell red dot... the thing is...

Fort Smith, AR Again, only 1 of my wa-marts has them. Having both worked in retail, and have a bachelor's degree in Marketing, I can tell you that this is one of 3 things. 1) Test Marketing: put it in a few stores, see the reaction, adjust the rest of the stores accordingly. 2)...

My city has 3 supercenters... The one I frequent started carrying a larger selection last week as well (bushmasters, mini 14, it was such a drastic change my GF even noticed.) Ones selection has stayed the same, and one only carries ammo. The one with the 'cool' guns is in the 'well off'...
