[QUOTE="DavidMcmillan, post: 3206364, member: 11749"] A life time retail person knows the importance of satisfying the requirements of the customer. If one doesn't, another will. The average LGS is such a low volume operation, they try to boost margins by increased prices. That usually requires carrying high inventory. Most LGS just do not have that level of capital. They need to provide some service to make up for the higher prices. Maybe simple gun smithing services, cerakoting, optic mounting, etc. (at very low cost). Then if they can't make a go of it, it's time to look at another type of business. [/QUOTE]
