Sarco double barrel shotguns

[Muley Gil SASS # 57795]

Sarco has a bunch of inexpensive double barrel shotguns for sale. They would be fine for a beginner CAS competitor.

Hmmm, shame on Sarco.  They have gone to non-standard HTML extensions on their web pages.  Most pages will open partially in Firefox browser (latest version) but hang up down-loading a gallery of several pictures, never to complete.  In Chrome browser, it works.    That's like refusing to serve a customer because they are not wearing the latest fashions of clothes in a style that matches shop owner's tastes.   Their web contractor should know better than to use non-standard extensions.

 

Also, Sarco has a long reputation for ranking conditions of firearms better than NRA standards for guns.  For example, take the Model 12 receiver WGD777 item number.  A deeply pitted rust bucket with no original finish noted.  This is ranked as Good condition.  NRA says this about a modern gun if it is to meet NRA

GOOD: In safe working condition, minor wear on working surfaces, no broken parts, no corrosion or pitting that will interfere with proper functioning.

 

Hmmm, buyer beware.  GJ

Oh. Them.

I tend to not do business with them ever since they refused to sell me a rifle on my C&R because I'm from Massachusetts.   They even admitted that they knew it was legal, but didn't care.

Yep...them...the only SARCO that I'm aware of.

 

There are MANY folks that will not transfer to a C&R license holder. 

 

I'm always a bit surprised...which is probably a sad statement about me...that folks that never owned a business identical to the one they are bad mouthing feel they can opine about how that business chooses to run. It's kinda like "don't rip on someone unless you've walked in their shoes".

 

Cheers!

I know. 

It's not like, as a retailer, we WANT to refuse business or lose customers; but business climate and regulatory environments sometimes make it a better option to decline a single sale than open a potential can of worms.

 

If I am deliberately turning down your money; it's probably not personal - but a well considered decision that says, "this action is not worth the $50 profit that it gains".

 

If, as a consumer, you don't agree with a businesses policies, pricing or grading - you always have the option to go elsewhere.

You are under no obligation to patronize them - but remember; they have no obligation to change their policies, pricing or grading to accomodate you either.
