Every weekend me and my friend we go out side and shoot usualy around noon till five oclock. I live in the middle of the country. And my neighbor keeps complaning that the shooting is to loud. But it is just 223 and 22 and 12 gauge. What should I do.

    Local pawn shop has a couple shooters I am interested in. Both are as close to new as a used gun can be.
    Sig P320 full sized 45 2 mags and a holster for 370.00

    S&W ported Shield in 40 3 mags for 315.00

    Looking at the auction side the seem to be ok deals. Would you buy either, neither or both.

    Id roll $575 out for both out the door. If he dont bite, walk. He paid less than a 1/3 of what he is asking.

    Depends on the state but I believe most states pawn shops have to run the serial numbers. Not gun shops just pawnbrokers.

    Most pawn shops I've been to (I have never pawned anything personally) offer ten cents on the dollar.

    I'll never understand why anyone thinks they "know what someone has in it" and how that matters when it comes to buying from them. Do you go to the grocery store and say "you guys only paid ten cents for these tomatoes".

    I've been involved with more than a few pawn shops that deal with guns and for the most part they had invested the same money any gun store would have in the guns they bought. Pawned guns aren't always these crazy cheap investments that people think the stores have.

    Plus, an item that is pawned stays in their pawn inventory at least 60 days before it can even try to be sold.

    Depends if you are in a hurry or not. Shops mark it up so you can haggle down and feel good paying more than retail.

    I have not been in any pawnshop, anywhere, that didn't do this. I have known people who have pawned firearm and it is about 10 to 29% of retail. If they purchase out right a little bit more.

    I think you should put the spare $685 toward a good used double barrel in 28ga, that would be sweet.
