I've been in two local shops and it wasn't cost that caused me to dislike shopping there.
I went in to both and asked if they had a Marlin model 60 and both shops told me those were junk and I should buy x(one wanted to sell me a ruger 10/22 and the other a savage bolt gun).
Neither one said we don't have any in stock but I can give you a price and we can order it for you. I even asked about them ordering and their response was we don't do that. So my only option was to buy what they wanted to sell me.
I don't know if it was just that the salesman didn't want to do any extra work but it didn't seem right.
I prefer local shops to walmart but the staff and service at the local shops here has not left a good first impression.
I get what you're saying and I am with you but when Walmart has what I want and the others don't (and don't want to get it) I don't have many options. It appears walmart doesn't want to sell me one either.
I may go give one of the shops another try and see if I can get them to sell me what I want.
