Mossberg Shockwave - where and how much?

[Omega]

I found one at the Gainesville gun show on Saturday. His sticker price was $499...I asked him what the real price was? He said he could do $425. Guess I should've bought it.

Those vendors were nuts on prices. I left 100 percent empty handed.

$425 is a good price. I checked around and most stores were around $449 retail with no sales. We did $439.99

it's a fair price. My point was that it was nearly 20 percent marked up on his actual price. I don't want to have to ask a vendor the best price they can do at a shop or show. Maybe I'm spoiled by the gun stores around me but that's just not how I do business

I wouldnt know about the gun shows. Don't see a reason anymore.

overheard a couple of the older guys talking saying it cost them too much and this will be their last year. The only thing that was selling was milsurps and they can't meet the demand

I saw a blonde svt 40 for 3k.

I don't get it

Around $430 is not a bad price... I just finished building one a little while ago, and between the Mossberg SBS 'kit' and the Raptor grip and the base gun this is definitely a better deal.

Should be legal to register these as an SBS and put a stock on right?

Im no lawyer but I would assume so. I'd defer to someone more knowledgeable.

I've seen that same SVT multiple times at the Columbus show. The owner is really proud of it.

I wish Shockwave would offer the Raptor grip in wood. I like the wood and steel look better than the black plastic.
