Dagnab, accessories for a couple guns is expensive nowdays.

Post by DaveInGA »

Got those four Hi-Point guns - two carbines, two pistols. Needed extra mags, a couple holsters, a couple magazine pouches, a couple dot sights and a couple carbine cases to to prevent them being beat to pieces carrying them in the truck. By the time I was done buying the extras, I'd spent more than the firearms cost.

The extras just about always out distance the purchase price!

No kidding!
Guns are as bad as airplane ,in their own way . It is said when the paperwork weighs as much as the plane your ready to fly.
I have 1 hard case because it came with a gun and it is cheap. I also have a clearanced tactical soft case that was said to be the thing ......also a let down.

What happened to the cost effective 4 and 6x scopes ? Why are there 2 makers of entry level sights then the price skips right to platinum plated gold surfaced sterling silver. Heaven help you if you want anything even sort of tactical related . I don't get how we can build $4 cat abuse Lazer pointer but it costs $170 more to put it on a Weaver mount and give it a 2 axis adjustment. I don't even want to start on lights......

I paid full price for my M&P 40 pistols, but even my reloaded ammo has cost far more than the pistols did. All that practice has been fun and well worth it. I think this Glock model 42 I carry a lot is going to be the same story.

Just what I have shot though my 45 I could have paid for every gun in the house If I had bought factory. Glad Lee is very reasonable.
